Maybe this is old news? |

I have written a quick little script to help prevent a server from syncing its |
| 4 |
portage tree more than once per 24 hours. Syncing more frequently is more |
| 5 |
likely to happen on a server with multiple admins, so instead of keeping |
| 6 |
track of when anyone syncs the tree we now just use this little script. We |
| 7 |
use esearch instead of calling emerge directly but the script can be adjusted |
| 8 |
very easily. |

If anyone has come up with a better way to do this, I'd love to see it. |
