37 My repos.conf is below.
38
39 [gentoo]
40 location = /usr/portage
41 sync-type = rsync
42 sync-uri = rsync://kwopper/portage
43 auto-sync = true
44
45 [alec]
46 location = /usr/local/portage
47 sync-type = git
48 sync-uri = git://github.com/trozamon/overlay.git
49 auto-sync = true
50
51 Naturally, you can replace the sync-uri in the gentoo section with
52 "rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage", so yours would be:
53
54 [gentoo]
55 location = /usr/portage
56 sync-type = rsync
57 sync-uri = rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
58 auto-sync = true
59
