I tried to use cvsup to update my ports.  Here is my cvsupfile:

*default host=cvsup5.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_3
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
ports-all

I ran cvsup cvsupfile
It connected fine.  Then it proceeded to delete all my makefiles and
other useful information from every port directory.  
A question:  what does '*default release=cvs' mean (I don't understand
what I'm doing really, I modified my cvsupfile from an example in The
Complete FreeBSD)?
