oh, it's possible to use rsync ! :-)) i didn't know
it's very nice, because it allows me to install macports on a new
computer, needing neither macports binaries, nor svn binaries :-)
i hope it will be maintained as is at least since svn will be
integrated in mac os x, will it ? (who decides this sort of thing ?)
well, no matter if there is no svn URL which always points to the
latest stable released version, since there is an rsync one :-)
the command to do to use rsync is
rsync -azv --delete-after rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/base/
macports/
isn't it ?
