From 7d8af51fdcf9b077da486bdb2f6d70ba885d1aab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: cperciva Date: Mon, 8 Aug 2005 20:10:06 +0000 Subject: Add portsnap to the base system. This is a secure, easy to use, fast, lightweight, and generally good way for users to keep their ports trees up to date. This is version 0.9.4 from the ports tree (sysutils/portsnap) with the following changes: 1. The experimental pipelined http code is enabled. No seatbelts in -CURRENT. (^_^) 2. The working directory has moved from /usr/local/portsnap to /var/db/portsnap (as discussed on -arch two days ago). 3. Portsnap now fetches a list of mirrors (distributed as DNS SRV records) and selects one randomly. This should help to avoid the uneven loading which plagues the cvsup mirror network. 4. The license is now 2-clause BSD instead of 3-clause BSD. 5. Various incidental changes to make portsnap fit into the base system's build mechanics. X-MFC-After: 6.0-RELEASE X-MFC-Before: 5.5-RELEASE X-MFC-To: RELENG_6, RELENG_5, ports discussed on: -arch and several other places "yes please" from: simon, remko, flz, Diane Bruce thinks this is a great idea: bsdimp Hopes he didn't forget any files: cperciva --- etc/portsnap.conf | 18 ++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+) create mode 100644 etc/portsnap.conf (limited to 'etc/portsnap.conf') diff --git a/etc/portsnap.conf b/etc/portsnap.conf new file mode 100644 index 0000000..665061e --- /dev/null +++ b/etc/portsnap.conf @@ -0,0 +1,18 @@ +# $FreeBSD$ + +# Default directory where compressed snapshots are stored. +# WORKDIR=/var/db/portsnap + +# Default location of the ports tree (target for "update" and "extract"). +# PORTSDIR=/usr/ports + +# Server or server pool from which to fetch updates.
