i agree with peter. first thing i do after a fresh OS install is ftp over
binary from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CVSup/binaries/
the next thing is do is:
$ cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/<some_file> .
$ vi <some_file>
$ ./cvsup -g -L 2 <some_file>
so your change won't be the end of the day, but it will just extra step.
[or i just get to learn cvsup command line options ;]
