CVS (or git) take care of the source tree, files which are under /usr/src directory, and not the files already present in /usr/include or /usr/lib directories. > I don't want the reproductibility of the build, as I want to change the source > code of the src/sys/dev/pci/azalia.c :) consider me a tester :P > And it's such a shame that I have to wait a lot of hours...
