    Default correct cvsup for 5.3 snapshot

    I am currently running a snapshot "FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE-SNAP001"
    and I want to update this...I am presuming to 5.3-STABLE ?

    Is this the correct cvsup file?

    *default host=someserver.freebsd.org
    *default base=/var/db
    *default prefix=/usr
    *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_3
    *default delete use-rel-suffix
    *default compress
    src-all


    Thanks-

    If you want -stable, change this to read:

    *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5

    Hi J.D.,

    What you've got will get you the 5.3 security version. What you want
    would be:
    *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5

    This change would get you the sources for 5.3 stable.
