-GLOBAL
-
-This directory contains virgin sources of the original distribution files on
-a "vendor" branch. Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to upgrade the
-files in this directory via patches and a cvs commit. New versions or
-official-patch versions must be imported.
-
-Before attempting an upgrade, please read the section entitled "Contributed
-Software" in the FreeBSD Handbook (from which this file is derived.) New
-releases of the source should be imported onto the vendor branch and merged
-with the FreeBSD-customized sources that live on the main branch.
-
-To upgrade to a newer version, when it is available:
- 1. Unpack the new version into an empty directory.
- [Do not make ANY changes to the files.]
-
- 2. Remove any files that don't apply to FreeBSD.
-
- 3. Use the command:
- cvs import -m 'Virgin import of GLOBAL v<version>' \
- src/contrib/global GLOBAL v<version>
-
- 4. Follow the instructions printed out in step 3 to resolve any
- conflicts between local FreeBSD changes and the newer version.
-
-Do not, under any circumstances, deviate from this procedure.
-
-To make local changes, simply patch and commit to the main branch (aka HEAD).
-Never make local changes on the GLOBAL vendor branch.
-
-Please submit changes to GLOBAL's author, Shigio Yamaguchi
-<shigio@wafu.netgate.net> for inclusion in his next release. The most recent
-release of GLOBAL is available at the author's web page:
