Re: FreeBSD 9.1-RC1 Available...

I read your message and followup messages and have questions about how to switch from csup to svn.

System source is in /usr/src obtained by csup, apparently now being deprecated.

Do I need to delete (rm -R /usr/src/*) before running 

svn co svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/9 /usr/src

I don't want an out-of-sync mess resulting from mixing two versions, assume that wouldn't work well.

I guess I need to switch the doc (/usr/doc) also to svn.

What about the ports?

Would I need to switch the ports tree from "portsnap fetch update", or is portsnap still the proper way?
