This describes the "refuse" file found in this directory. The
explanation cannot be put inside the file itself because:
COMMENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN refuse FILES!
Each line of the refuse file contains one or more filename patterns
separated by white space. Everything matched by a pattern will be
left untouched by CVSup. If a pattern matches a directory, then
everything beneath that directory will be left alone.
You can copy "refuse" to your sup directory and add or remove
whatever you like. The example supfiles in this directory set
CVSup's base directory to "/var/db". The sup directory is in the base
directory; i.e., it is "/var/db/sup". If you have changed your base
directory, your sup directory is /path/to/base/sup.
If you are an English speaker and don't wish to receive the
non-English ports, use the following patterns:
ports/arabic
ports/chinese
ports/french
ports/german
ports/hebrew
ports/hungarian
ports/japanese
ports/korean
ports/polish
ports/portuguese
ports/russian
ports/ukrainian
ports/vietnamese
Note that this is *not* a supported configuration and may result
in ports builds breaking.
Use refuse files with care. Some parts of the src distribution
depend on files in completely different parts.
For more information about refuse files see cvsup(1), which is
installed by the "cvsup" and "cvsup-bin" ports. See also the CVSup
FAQ at <http://www.cvsup.org/faq.html>.
