I'm not in any way FreeBSD dev, but looks like yes, it goes away. In fact last time I fetched sources using cvsup they were outdated and my understanding is that cvsup was getting the files from cvs repo. > I ask because I maintain a number of > local CVS repositories of code for which I am the only > developer/maintainer.

Subversion has a tool to automatically convert cvs repos to subversion. I believe that's how FreeBSD was converted. -- Best regards, Derek mailto:[email protected] Why doesn't DOS ever say "EXCELLENT command or filename!" _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
