2000-02-07 Thread Christian Weisgerber
Why does "make update" in /usr/src also include a cvsup of /usr/ports? Since /usr/ports and /usr/docs have Makefiles and "update" targets of their own, and the alternative update by cvs doesn't cover /usr/ports either, I suggest to remove the /usr/ports cvsup from Makefile.inc1's "update" target.
