Hi All,

I'm wondering if someone can enlighten me on the /usr/ports directory
structure for development.  What I'm looking for is a place I can put
ports I'm working on until they are ready for submission, without
having them overwritten each time I cvsup my ports tree (daily cron job)

Setting aside something like /usr/ports/local would be nice, or is there
a better option?

cheers

Tim
