500: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
501: if you know nothing about ports
502: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
503: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
504: OpenBSD ports system.
505: <p>
506: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
507: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
508: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
509: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
510: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
511: with a command like:
512:
513: <blockquote><pre>
514: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
515: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
516: </pre></blockquote>
517:
518: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
519: server.]
520: <p>
521: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
522: ports for the 6.6 release will be made available if problems arise.
523: <p>
524: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
525: would like to know more, the mailing list
526: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
