RELENG in CTM

[Chris Rees]

Dear all,

I discovered CTM not long ago, and I'm impressed at its efficiency
when automated. Is there any way to track something other than
-STABLE? Even just the latest security updates for the latest release?

I've tried searching the archives, but no-one seems to have asked that
before....

You can do this.  If you want to use the existing CTM updates, follow
cvs-cur, which gives the whole cvs directory tree.  Then use the cvs
program to extract whatever RELENG you want to, similarly as if you were
using cvsup to get it from one of the existing cvsup mirrors.

If you want to create your own CTM creating machine, you can also do it
there as well.  You have to understand how CTM works, but once you have
understood it, it is relatively straightforward.

Aha, now I understand src-cur. Thanks a lot!

Chris etc,
I subscribe most ctm lists, (cvs ports src-cur src-4 5 6 7
(thanks to Steven for generating them)

All come through a single @address POP3 served, on a gate, & to an internal
host, solit up by
        http://berklix.com/~jhs/dots/.procmailrc.lists

Then applied via these aliases:
        # receives on freebsd-ctm-src-cur, & forwards to
        # freebsd-ctm-src-cur-pipe on host=ctm which has no smrsh & can run pipes.
        # to both host=gate & host=ctm.
