Hi, I want to start following -stable so I have read http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html and http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#BldGetSrc as well as looking through the mailing list archives for cvs from preloaded source.
I thought that I'd preload the sources so downloaded all of sys, src, ports and xenocara and put them in /usr as per instructions. No problem, but I am left with one unclear issue (I am a complete cvs noob). On http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html it says. "NOTE: If you are updating a source tree that you initially fetched from a different server, or from a CD, you must add the -d [cvsroot] option to cvs. # cd /usr/src # cvs -d [email protected]:/cvs -q up -Pd" I do not understand what version I then end up with, because on http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#BldGetSrc and above the quoted section it says to add -rOPENBSD_5_6 to get -stable (for 5.6) when checking out from scratch. But I am not sure since this is the only example for updating preloaded files. IF I run that there is updating of course, but there's no "Tag" that tells me if it is HEAD or whatever. If I add -rOPENBSD_5_6 I get the Tag file of course but what version do I get without it?!? And how should I update the next time? Thanks/Johan
