Hello all, I noticed on http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#BldGetSrc that there is information about preloading the tree, but does not mention that getting to -current requires -rHEAD at least the first time using 'cvs update' after pre-loading the tree with the source files from the last release.
I discovered (the semi-hard way) that to get to -current, I needed -rHEAD to be specified in the command line. This is after pre-loading the tree, because the (src/sys/xenocara).tar.gz files all have a check out of OPENBSD_5_7 (or whatever -stable release), frozen to that point at the time of releasing. Running "cvs up" simply gets me to the latest -stable. My .cvsrc (between the hyphen lines): ------------------------------------------------------------ # $OpenBSD: dot.cvsrc,v 1.1 2013/04/01 16:55:26 espie Exp $ # cvs -q -danon...@anoncvs.au.openbsd.org:/cvs diff -up update -Pd checkout -P ------------------------------------------------------------ It seems the (src/sys/xenocara).tar.gz files are not in the "snapshots" directory of any of the FTP mirrors I've seen. Should this be mentioned in the documentation or is it just me?
