:Is there any objection to changing the default cvsup file to grab the
:checked out version of sources? I'm working on the Updating portion of the
:handbook, and I'm realizing that having to check out the source is an extra
:unneeded step for most users. This also would be 'expected' behavior for
:users coming from FreeBSD.

:< *default prefix=/home/dcvs
:< #*default prefix=/usr
:< *default release=cvs
:< #*default release=cvs tag=.

:> #*default prefix=/home/dcvs
:> *default prefix=/usr
:> #*default release=cvs
:> *default release=cvs tag=.
Yow. no, don't change the default cvsup file. Most people reference
the file directly from cron and this will cause their cvsup's to suddenly
do something different.
You can instead create a new cvsup file w/ a different name and then
document it.
