-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-utility is a simple tool for managing your ports.
-It uses no external database to track what you
-have installed.
-Rather it uses the existing ports infrastructure,
-including what is located in
-.Pa /var/db/pkg .
-The focus of this tool is to keep the dependency
-tracking information for your ports up to date,
-which allows you to update a specific port without
-having to update all of the ports
-.Dq above
-it.
-In the rare case where you do need to recompile
-ports which depend on a port you are updating,
-the
-.Fl r
-option exists to accomplish this.
-.Pp
-By default
-.Nm
-will first recurse through the port to update,
-and all of its dependencies (if any) to handle
-any port OPTIONS via the 'make config' interface.
-It will then start building all ports that need
-updating.
-While recursing through dependencies,
-a 'make checksum' process will be launched
-in the background to either verify that the
-correct distfiles are available,
-or start downloading the new ones.
-If you stop
-.Nm
-with ^C, an attempt will be made to kill off all
-the child processes started for this purpose.
-.Pp
-If the recursion through the ports for 'make
-config' does not find a port that needs updating,
-the dependency check step will be skipped prior
-to building the port specified on the command line.
-In addition to this optimization,
-information about up-to-date dependencies,
-choices made on which ports to build for
-interactive mode,
-and ports already visited for 'make config' are
-all cached to enhance performance and prevent
-duplicated efforts.
-.Pp
-While recursing through the dependencies,
-if a port is marked IS_INTERACTIVE this will
-be flagged.
-In the absence of this notification,
-under normal circumstances the only user interaction
-required after the port starts building is to answer
-questions about the deletion of stale distfiles.
-This can be eliminated with the
-.Fl d
-option.
-.Pp
-While checking dependencies, if a port has CONFLICTS
-set, the list will be checked against your installed ports,
-and if you have installed an alternate version of a port
-that is required by the port you are building,
-it will be used in place of the default dependency.
-.Pp
-If there is no
-.Fl B
-option specified when updating an existing port,
-a backup package will be created before
-.Xr pkg_delete 1
-is called.
-If there is no
-.Fl b
-option specified, the backup package will be deleted
-once the new version of the port is successfully installed.
-If the installation fails for whatever reason,
-a helpful message will be printed, along with instructions
-on where to find the backup package.
-.Pp
-At the conclusion of a successful installation,
-whether of an individual port, a list of ports,
-or when using the
-.Fl a
-option, any
-.Pa pkg-message
-files that were installed during the installation
-will be displayed.
-.Sh OPTIONS
-The options are as follows:
-.Bl -tag -width F1
-.It Fl B
-prevents creation of the backup package for the installed port
-.It Fl C
-prevents 'make clean' being run in port directory
-.It Fl G
-prevents the recursive 'make config'
-.It Fl b
-create and keep a backup package of an installed port
-.It Fl g
-create a package of the new port
-.It Fl n
-do not actually perform any updates
-.It Fl t
-recurse dependencies thoroughly, using all-depends-list
-.It Fl v
-verbose output
-.It Fl u
-unattended mode, accepts defaults for all
-.Nm
-dialogues
-.It Fl f
-always rebuild ports (overrides -i)
-.It Fl i
-interactive update mode
-.It Fl D
-prevents cleaning of distfiles
-.It Fl d
-always clean distfiles
-.It Fl m Ar arguments for make
-any arguments to supply to
-.Xr make 1
-.It Fl p Ar port directory in /usr/ports
-Specify the full path to a port directory
-.It Fl o Ar <new port dir in /usr/ports> <installed port>
-Replace the installed port with a port from a different origin
-.It Fl r Ar name/glob of port in /var/db/pkg
-rebuild port, and all ports that depend on it
-.It Fl a
-check all ports, update as necessary
-.It Fl l
-list all installed ports by category
-.It Fl L
-list all installed ports by category, and search for updates
-.It Fl e Ar name of port directory in /var/db/pkg
-Expunge port using
-.Xr pkg_delete 1 ,
-and optionally removing all distfiles.
-Calls
-.Fl s
-mode after it is done expunging in case removing
-the port causes a dependency to no longer be
-necessary.
-.It Fl s
-clean out stale ports that used to be depended on
-.It Fl h
-display help file
-.El
-.Sh MAKE ENVIRONMENT
-If the directory pointed to by the PKGREPOSITORY
-variable exists (by default
-.Pa /usr/ports/packages/All )
-then it will be used to store new and backup packages.
-.Pp
-The UPGRADE_TOOL variable is set to
-.Dq portmaster ,
-and the UPGRADE_PORT and UPGRADE_PORT_VER variables
-are set to the full package name string and version
-of the existing package being replaced, if any.
-.Sh FILES
-.Bl -tag -width ".Pa $HOME/.portmasterrc" -compact
-.It Pa /etc/portmaster.rc
-.It Pa $HOME/.portmasterrc
-Optional system and user configuration files.
-The variables set in the script's getopts routine
-can be specified in these files to enable those options.
-.It Pa /var/db/pkg/*/+IGNOREME
-If this file exists,
-.Nm
-will ignore this port for the purpose of dependency
-updates.
-.El
-.Sh EXIT STATUS
-.Ex -std
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-The following is an example of a typical usage
-of the
-.Nm
-command:
-.Pp
-.Dl "portmaster fooport-1.23"
-.Dl "portmaster fooport"
-.Dl "portmaster fooport-1.23 barport-4.56"
-.Dl "portmaster -p /usr/ports/foo/fooport"
-.Dl "portmaster foo/fooport"
-.Dl "portmaster -r fooport-1.23"
-.Dl "portmaster -o emulators/linux_base-fc4 linux_base-8-8.0_15"
-.Pp
-.Dl "portmaster -L | grep -B1 ' '"
-Print only the ports that have available updates.
