Files under /usr/ports that do not belong to the Ports Collection will
be deleted when you run cvsup, so /usr/ports/net/sup is not a good
choice.
Quoting cvsup(1) manpage:
[...]
As many as three refuse files are examined for each supfile line. There
can be a global refuse file named base/collDir/refuse which applies to
all collections and releases. There can be a per-collection refuse file
named base/collDir/collection/refuse which applies to a specific collec-
tion. Finally, there can be a per-release and tag refuse file which
applies only to a given release/tag combination within a collection. The
name of the latter is formed by suffixing the name of the per-collection
refuse file in the same manner as described above for the list file.
None of the refuse files are required to exist.
cvsup has a built-in default value of /usr/local/etc/cvsup for base and
sup for collDir but it is possible to override both of these. The value
of base can be changed using the -b option or a base=pathname entry in
the supfile. (If both are used the -b option will override the supfile
entry.) The value of collDir can only be changed with the -c option;
there is no supfile command to change it.
As an example, suppose that the base and collDir both have their default
values, and that the collection and release are `src-all' and `cvs',
respectively. Assume further that checkout mode is being used with
`tag=RELENG_3'. The three possible refuse files would then be named:
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/refuse
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/refuse
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/refuse.cvs:RELENG_3
If the supfile includes the command base=/foo the refuse files would be:
/foo/sup/refuse
/foo/sup/src-all/refuse
/foo/sup/src-all/refuse.cvs:RELENG_3
If -b /bar is used (even with base=/foo in the supfile):
/bar/sup/refuse
/bar/sup/src-all/refuse
/bar/sup/src-all/refuse.cvs:RELENG_3
and with -c stool as well:
/bar/stool/refuse
/bar/stool/src-all/refuse
/bar/stool/src-all/refuse.cvs:RELENG_3
[...]
Personally, I use /usr/local/etc/cvsup as the base dir and /usr as the
prefix dir, i.e.
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default prefix=/usr
The refuse file I use for the entire Ports Collection is located at
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/ports-all/refuse.
