Matt, |

Gentoo doesn't use cvs tree's in the way that (for example) I know OpenBSD |
4 |
does. Generally there is no use of branches at all, everything is in HEAD. |
5 |
(Someone please correct me if I'm wrong). |
6 |
|
7 |
The stable/unstable stuff is done using keywords in portage, rather than |
8 |
handled using tags in CVS. The reason being that only developers use CVS so |
9 |
the branches would be irrelevant to the users, they'd just get whatever |
10 |
branch the rsync mirrors were "tuned to". |
11 |
|
12 |
The gentoo system is one big lump (no offense intended) rather than one |
13 |
quick moving lump (HEAD) and a slow moving one (1_4_STABLE) al la obsd. |
14 |
|
15 |
I hope that clarifies/helps. |
