And for reasons unrelated to cvsup, I've been doing things like: rm -Rf /usr/ports/net cvsup ~/cvsup/all_ports and comparing the entire ports directory on my Sparc ultra-10 machine to the same tree on my dual-Athlon machine. [aside: The dual-athlon is faster...]. I've just been comparing for the existence of files and directories though, I haven't been doing an actual diff-type comparison of the contents of any files. I could do that too. As long as I'm replying to a question on cvsup, here's a question that I can't seem to find in the man pages. Is there a way I could say "do all the work of a normal CVSup run, and tell me what *would* change, but don't change anything"? Thanks a lot for working on this. I'd love to see cvsup more widely used, and on more hardware platforms so it would be more attractive to the openbsd and netbsd folks. and openafs. and samba. and... -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
