I guess I pooched the permissions on the scripts before committing them
since they're not executable and now it's too late to change (I think -
I suppose you could chmod the ,v files and it might inheirit but I don't
feel like asking the repomeisters to try that).

as part of the release if MAKE_ISOS is set. Will also build the
first CD with packages (in addition to the "minimal" CD) if CD_EXTRA_BITS
points to them. This probably need a bit more work to get fully useful,
but it at least covers the basics for now.
NO_SENDMAIL flag if set. The whole NO_FOO mechanism in /usr/src
is pretty bogus and needs to be re-examined in the context of a
larger argument about modularity, but that's something for another
time.

Remove the old *.TXT release documentation files, as they
have been subsumed into RELNOTESng. The new layout will greatly
facilitate their maintenence and help keep them internally consistent.
the need to also create the entire ports tree during a `make release'.
The main motivation behind this is that handling the ports tree still
takes a huge amount of time due to the large number of directories
involved, even on modern disks.
The solution is to establish a list of dependent ports that are
minimally required. This list needs to be manually maintained in case
the doc ports toolchain changes, and has thus been broken out into a
separate file Makefile.inc.docports. (release/Makefile has gotten
overly lengthy already anyway.)

disk for use during the install. It also links netconfig and services
into /etc on the mfsroot so that they are available to a fixit

documented in revision 1.517 by phk, who committed the change over a year
ago. Accordingly, put the feature back and drop all plans to MFC the previous
"fix".
asking what it's for and I can't answer since I can't see any conceivable
use for it. Unless someone corrects that impression, I'll also MFC this
change in a few days.
