Because we put all other vendor code in contrib/ by convention. When there is vendor code in other places it usually results in confusion. For bits that have userland and kernel bits we use head/contrib and head/sys/contrib pulling from vendor/foo and vendor-sys/foo, respectively. Also, this is not the first import as we used a CVS vendor branch for IP filter previously that svn2cvs preserved. Cy, for your svn merge you said you would do this: cd $MY_WORK_DIR/current/contrib/ipfilter svn merge --record-only \ svn+ssh://svn.FreeBSD.org/base/vendor/ipfilter/dist@NNNNNNN cd $MY_WORK_DIR/current/sys/contrib/ipfilter svn merge --record-only \ svn+ssh://svn.FreeBSD.org/base/vendor-sys/ipfilter/dist@NNNNNNN but instead you did this: slippy$ cd $MY_WORK_DIR/current/contrib/ipfilter slippy$ svn merge --record-only file:///tank/wrepos/wsvn/base/vendor/ipfilte r/dist@252548 Notice you are using 'file:///tank/', not the official SVN repository. All your checkouts and merges should be done using svn.FreeBSD.org, not a local mirror. That might explain your merge problem. Also, if you are just updating the existing vendor branch and not updating it to a newer version I'm not sure you really need the @NNNNNN part for the bootstrap merge, but it probably doesn't hurt. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
