New Revision: 244393
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/244393

Log:
  Merge r243800 from head to stable/9:
  
    Specifically point at the Handbook instructions for world updates in
    UPDATING by URL.
  
    As there has been some confusion over the need to run "mergemaster -p",
    part of our standard upgrade procedure, following the recent addition of
    an "auditdistd" user, add a note about it to UPDATING explicitly.
