460: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
461: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
462: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
463: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
464: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
465: with a command like:
466:
467: <blockquote><pre>
1.7 bentley 468: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
469: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</kbd>
1.1 beck 470: </pre></blockquote>
471:
1.7 bentley 472: <p>
1.1 beck 473: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
474: server.]
475: <p>
476: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
477: ports for the 6.6 release will be made available if problems arise.
478: <p>
479: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
480: would like to know more, the mailing list
481: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
