I just installed 2.2.2-REL on an new machine and am trying to get to 2.2-stable using cvsup. This worked reasonably well using the files in /usr/share/examples/cvsup. I wasn't quite so successfull getting the ports-tree. As stated in the example files and in the FBSD-handbok in www.freebsd.org, there is obviously only the "."-tag for the ports-tree. I used it and got a new ports tree. However, when using the Apache-port, I noticed that this port is installing an alpha-release of Apache 1.3. While even alpha versions of Apache may be very stable, I would be much more happy to use a proven release version like 1.2.x in a production environment. Obviously, I got the ports tree from -current. How do I get the 2.2-stable ports tree?
