                     34: <p>
                     35: <b>CVSup</b> is a software package for distributing and updating source
                     36: trees from a master CVS repository on a remote server host. The OpenBSD
                     37: sources are maintained in a CVS repository on a central development machine
                     38: in Canada.  With CVSup, OpenBSD users can easily keep their own source trees
                     39: up to date.
                     40: </p>

                     42: <p>
                     43: <b>CVSup</b> uses the so-called pull model of updating. Under the pull
                     44: model, each client asks the server for updates, if and when they are
                     45: wanted.  The server waits passively for update requests from its clients.
                     46: Thus all updates are instigated by the client.  The server never sends
                     47: unsolicited updates.  Users must either run the <b>CVSup</b> client
                     48: manually to get an update, or they must set up a cron job to run it
                     49: automatically on a regular basis.

                     53: The term <b>CVSup</b>, capitalized just so, refers to the entire software
                     54: package. Its main components are the client <tt>cvsup</tt> which runs on
                     55: each user's machine, and the server <tt>cvsupd</tt> which runs at each of
