464: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.

467: <blockquote><pre>

473: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
474: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
475: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
476: Using these files
477: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
478: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

485: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:

492: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
493: if you know nothing about ports
494: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
495: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
496: OpenBSD ports system.
497: <p>
498: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
499: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
500: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
501: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
502: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
503: with a command like:
504:
505: <blockquote><pre>
506: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.11 beck 507: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
1.1 beck 508: </pre></blockquote>
509:
510: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
511: server.]
512: <p>
513: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
514: ports for the 6.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
515: <p>
516: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
517: would like to know more, the mailing list
518: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
