I would have preferred to know about the -C option earlier- I hadn't 
realised how helpful it was. I used -Cv in the end which gave me a 
better overview.

I do have a "WARN: no CVS directories. Use -N to check a new port." Is 
this normal? Is this simply expected of a new uncommitted port? I assume 
this is the case due to -N mentioned in the warning, I also ran it with 
-CvN and it came back with "looks fine".

I'll upload a new .shar to my URI now.

THX :)
