I seem to have to run 'make index' in /usr/ports after I've run 'svn up

seem like a much better tool. Perhaps I should be running 'make
fetchindex' instead? I'm sure I've read about the correct way to do so,
but it doesn't appear to be here:

Thanks in advance for any advice.
'make index' looks good to me, it's the right way to do things imo.
What bothers you, following 'make index', pkg version output seems dodgy
?
Mainly, just the amount of time it takes to run "make index", lol. And
the fact that I never had to do so with portsnap. I'm thinking that
perhaps portsnap runs something similar to 'make fetchindex' within the
whole 'portsnap fetch update' process...?
