apb 46e1ba7e4e * Make etcupdate's -s option accept a colon-separated list of tgz
files.  (It was already possible to use several -s options.)
* Change man page to refer to "-s tgzdir" instead of "-s tempdir",
  to reduce confusion between tempdir and temproot.
* Always use a temproot directory, even if passed "-s tgzdir".
* Always invoke "postinstall check", even when not using a source dir.
* Add a BUGS section saying that using -s srcdir is not recommended.

Reviewed by lukem and martti.

hubertf ac583aa32a Xref etcupdate from postinstall, and vice versa. 2006-08-11 20:28:22 +00:00
apb 7e321ef839 Give etcupdate the ability to use etc.tgz and xetc.tgz.
* Expand the "-s" flag to -s {srcdir|tgzfile|tempdir}.
* Deprecate the "-b" flag.  It is replaced by "-s tempdir".
* Change "-s srcdir" to refer to the top of the source tree (e.g.
  /usr/src) instead of the etc subdirectory.

In etcupdate's interactive phase, enhance the "s" command to be able
to invoke alternative diff commands.

Also some style changes.

wiz a90c0085c1 Some Bl improvements; drop trailing whitespace; don't comma-separate
"a, and b"; mention arguments in option listing; list options in SYNOPSIS
in default order (those without arguments first).

perry 2b097fd2fc Massive cleanup of the document, although there is a lot more work to
do still.

perry fec4dbea24 Add a -l option telling etcupdate to skip any file who's RCS id has
not been changed.
(-l means "skip local modifications".)

martti f925d156c3 Checksum files produced by "etcupdate -a" should not be stored in /etc
as / might be a read-only filesystem (PR#20201).

mrg 5de60e100f allow /etc/etcupdate.conf (and ~/.etcupdate.conf) to set IGNOREFILES to a list
of files that etcupdate will ignore; never considering them for updating.

guessed it) 'NetBSD.org'.
