932: <p>
933: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
934: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&arch=i386">
935: cvs(1)</a> if

937: source tree, our ports tree is available via
938: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
939: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
940: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
941: with a command like:
942: <p>
943: <ul><pre>
944: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
1.2 deraadt 945: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_8</strong>
1.1 deraadt 946: </pre></ul>
947: <p>
948: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
949: server.]
950: <p>
951: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
952: ports for the 5.8 release will be made available if problems arise.
953: <p>
954: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
955: would like to know more, the mailing list
