The example file /usr/local/share/examples/cvsync/cvsync.conf installed by the cvsync package also has # # alternatively, fetch only selected parts # collection { # name openbsd-cvsroot release rcs # } # collection { # name openbsd-ports release rcs # } # collection { # name openbsd-src release rcs # } # collection { # name openbsd-www release rcs # } # collection { # name openbsd-xenocara release rcs # } # # # the X11 and XF4 trees are of historical interest only # collection { # name openbsd-x11 release rcs # } # collection { # name openbsd-xf4 release rcs # } so the third collection in this list name openbsd-src release rcs should be sufficient for you.
