Description Mark Jacobs 2000-08-04 13:00:01 UTC 
Using supplied stable-supfile, and refuse file (with required
modifications). CVSUP does not preform any stable updates. Ports
and doc however are done. My refuse file is the same as the sample
refuse file with the ports/ entries uncommented.

How-To-Repeat: Move sample refuse file into /usr/sup. Uncomment port entries. Run cvsup
against stable support tree. No updates should occur. Delete or rename
refuse file, rerun cvsup. Updates to source tree should occur.

Submitter apparently didn't read the file before using it, 
especially this part: 

#NOTE:  CVSup currently does not understand comments (lines beginning 
#with a `#' character) in refuse files, so please remember to remove all 
#such comments if you intend to use this file as a starting point for 
#creating your own refuse file.
