<title>Ports CVS End of Life on February 28th 2013</title>
<p>The development of &os; ports is done in Subversion
nowadays. By February 28th 2013, the &os; ports tree will
no longer be exported to CVS. Therefore ports tree updates
via CVS, CVSup or csup(1) will no longer be available after
that date. All users who use CVS, CVSup or csup(1) to
update the ports tree are encouraged to switch to
portsnap(8) or for users which need more control over their
ports collection checkout, use Subversion directly. More
information are available in the announcement mail on the <a
href="&lists.ports-announce;/2012-September/000026.html">&os;&nbsp;ports announce mailing list</a>.</p>
<p>A migration guide from CVSup or csup(1) to portsnap(8) is
also available in <a
href="&url.doc.base-en;/books/handbook/ports-using.html#cvsup-migration">the &os; Handbook</a>.</p>
