Can anyone tell me what release and branch of FreeBSD
im tracking. its a 6.1 system. I'm asking as I will soon be
testing the waters with Buildworld and mergemaster etc to
get to 6.2. What would the default release= change to then
? if 'cvs' is tracking the 6.1 branch ?????
You need to specify a tag= either for *default or for src-all
RELENG_6_2 for the latest 6.2
or
RELENG_6_1 for the latest 6.1 (security updates)
or
RELENG_6 for whatever 6-STABLE is (6.2 right now but will soon
enough be moving on towards 6.3.).

Especially noting the part:
"There is an important special case that comes into play if you
specify neither a tag= field nor a date= field. In that case, you
receive the actual RCS files directly from the server's CVS
repository, rather than receiving a particular version. "
