So I have a cvsup mirror, set up with net/cvsup-mirror port. It was ok until the server crashed (all my fault, really) and fsck came up with all that soft-updates related stuff and what not.
Anyway, cvsup-mirror seems to not have noticed the crash at all, but some clients cvsupping from this mirror report unexpected syntax errors during buildworld. They cease to do so once cvsupped from another mirror, but only if I remove src completely before it. Cvsupping the broken sources against the good ones doesn't find a mistake at all. My question is: what mechanisms do cvsup and cvsupd have to deal with data corruption? I know about the -s switch, but it doesn't help to disable it in my situation. How do I repair broken sources or repo, using a good cvsup repo. How do I prevent this from happening again without disabling soft- updates?
