sources are maintained in a CVS repository on a central development machine
in Canada. With CVSup, OpenBSD users can easily keep their own source trees
up to date.

CVSup uses the so-called pull model of updating. Under the pull

manually to get an update, or they must set up a cron(8) job to run it
automatically on a regular basis.
-
The term CVSup, capitalized just so, refers to the entire software
package. Its main components are the client cvsup which runs on
each user's machine, and the server cvsupd which runs at each of
the OpenBSD CVSup mirror sites.
-
CVSup is intended to be both faster and more flexible than
sup(1), CVSup's predecessor.
-
The OpenBSD Project currently has five main source repositories:
-
src - Houses all source code for the OpenBSD Operating System.

CVS can be used for remote file access, it is not optimized for
wholesale source tree distribution over the net, and CVSup can be
easily an order of magnitude more efficient for this task.

port. Currently the OpenBSD ports of Ezm3 and consequently CVSup
are only available on the i386 platform.

In order to mirror the OpenBSD repository with CVSup,
the following configuration file might be used:

This directs cvsup to refresh all OpenBSD distributions from
cvsup.uk.openbsd.org with a umask(2) that permits group write
permission to the local repository.
-
Assuming this file is saved as cvs-supfile, the
following command would be used to invoke the cvsup GUI:
-
cvsup cvs-supfile
whereas for batch mode, the following might be used:
-
cvsup -g -L 2 cvs-supfile

It is now simple to check out any one of the CVSup'ed repositories.
For Korn/Bourne shells:
-
# cd /usr
# CVSROOT=/cvs cvs checkout src
For csh and its derivatives:

# setenv CVSROOT /cvs

The following supfile could be used to update your ports tree:

to specify an existing tag, as CVSup cannot distinguish valid from
invalid tags, and an attempt to synchronize an existing source tree
to an invalid tag will remove all files.

Alternatively, use the keyword date=[cc.]yy.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss
to select a revision by date. All 17 or 20 characters must be

There are a few issues relating to cryptographic software that everyone
should be aware of:

However, if you are outside the USA or Canada, you should not
