cvs checkout ./. csup

[Matthias Apitz]

Hello,

Since many years I'm fetching or updating /usr/ports with

# cd /usr
# setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs at anoncvs.fr.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs
# cvs checkout ports

and later do the updating just with:

# cd /usr/ports
# cvs update
# portupgrade -ai

The FreeBSD handbook describes (or recommends?) using 'csup' for
updating ports tree... What is the advantage (or reason, if any)?

Thanks in advance
