svn commit: r269351 - head/usr.sbin/bsdconfig/share

[Devin Teske]

Author: dteske
Date: Thu Jul 31 22:00:36 2014
New Revision: 269351
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/269351

Log:
  Define a setvar() function for platforms using a shell unlike FreeBSD's
  sh(1) for `/bin/sh' (e.g., bash(1) which lacks a setvar definition).
  This is to improve portability to other Operating Systems (e.g., Linux).
