Here: http://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/SyncingWithSVN it says that when I run 'port -d sync' it will run 'svn update' But when I do 'port -d sync' it doesn't update the ports and asks me to run 'port selfupdate' which uses rsync, which I do not want to as the network blocks it. -- Jackson Isaac S6 B.Tech CSE Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham jacksonisaac.wordpress.com Github/JacksonIsaac _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
