+# $Id$
+#
+# This file contains all of the "CVSup collections" that make up the
+# FreeBSD GNATS bug report database.
+#
+# CVSup (CVS Update Protocol) allows you to download the latest CVS
+# tree (or any branch of development therefrom) to your system easily
+# and efficiently (far more so than with sup, which CVSup is aimed
+# at replacing). If you're running CVSup interactively, and are
+# currently using an X display server, you should run CVSup as follows
+# to keep your CVS tree up-to-date:
+#
+# cvsup gnats-supfile
+#
+# If not running X, or invoking cvsup from a non-interactive script, then
+# run it as follows:
+#
+# cvsup -g -L 2 gnats-supfile
+#
+# You may wish to change some of the settings in this file to better
+# suit your system:
+#
+# host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
+# This specifies the server host which will supply the
+# file updates. Please change this to one of the mirror
+# sites if possible. (See the "README" file.) You can
+# override this setting on the command line with cvsup's
+# "-h host" option.
+#
+# base=/usr
+# This specifies the root where CVSup will store information
+# about the collections you have transferred to your system.
+# A setting of "/usr" will generate this information in
+# /usr/sup. Even if you are CVSupping a large number of
+# collections, you will be hard pressed to generate more than
+# ~1MB of data in this directory. You can override the
+# "base" setting on the command line with cvsup's "-b base"
+# option. This directory must exist in order to run CVSup.
+#
+# prefix=/usr
+# This specifies where to place the requested files. A
+# setting of "/usr" will place all of the files requested
+# in "/usr/ports" (e.g., "/usr/ports/devel", "/usr/ports/lang").
+# The prefix directory must exist in order to run CVSup.
