RE: cvsup-mirror supfile configuration for specific source

2007-04-26 Thread Anthony Human
Thanks for the response.

However, I'm trying to avoid having to download the entire cvs tree
considering I only need the source 5.5 Release or 6.2 Release. The ports
tree would be great as well.

The CVS Repository is 3.1 GB which is a rather large amount for us to
download.

If you're running a local cvsup mirror, just grab the whole cvs tree for
the sources (and the ports).  You can leave out the bug database, and a
few other distributions, but it's probably not worth your while to get
the checked-out sources instead of the cvs files.

cvsup-mirror supfile configuration for specific source

2007-04-25 Thread Anthony Human
Hello,
 
Currently we have quite a number of servers running either 5.5 Release
or 6.2 Release. I would like to configure a BSD box as a cvsup-mirror to
serve our internal servers. I am doing this to hopefully save both time
and bandwidth when updating.
 
Please could someone assist me with configuring the supfile to only
download the source for the above versions? Any other advice/tips would
be much appreciated.
 
The default supfile looks so:

---
#
# Standard supfile for CVSup FreeBSD mirrors.
#
*default delete use-rel-suffix umask=002
cvs-allrelease=cvsprefix=prefixes/FreeBSD.cvs
gnats release=current
prefix=prefixes/FreeBSD-gnats.current
www release=current  prefix=prefixes/FreeBSD-www.current
mail-archive  release=current  prefix=prefixes/FreeBSD-mail.current
distrib release=selfprefix=prefixes/distrib.self

---
 
Thanks,
Anthony
