Just delete /usr/src.  You can get it back if you need it by redoing the 
cvsup.

Newbie: Ports upgrade, CVSup, and disk space problems

2005-12-07 Thread Charles Haynes
Hi, all. I'm new to FreeBSD. 

I'm setting up a machine to act as a webserver using: 

FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p12-jc2 (jail18) #0

Tonight I added the package: 

cvsup-without-gui-16.1h_2 

and ran: 

# cvsup -g -L 2 /root/cvs-supfile

After it ran (which took over an hour), I realized I used the
"cvs-supfile" and not the "ports-supfile." I only wanted to update the
ports tree, and not download the entire CVS repository. How do I prune
this back to a manageable size? I'm going to be using this machine
(it's a VPS) as a webserver only. 

Many thanks for any assistance you can offer! 

Here's the relevant parts of the supfile: 

*default host=cvsup9.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix

*default compress
