Hi, I used to keep all my /etc files in a CVS project that I created, and
manually merged in everything I wanted from /usr/src/etc.  This has turned
into a very long process lately, and I'm wondering what people recommend
that I do to shorten this process.  Should I import NetBSD's /usr/src/etc
onto a VENDOR branch?  Should I apply all the changes I made in that etc
project to the files in /usr/src/etc and use anoncvs?  As of NetBSD-1.5.2
I notice some support of ".local" files and defaults in /etc/defaults.
Perhaps I should only have those files under version control?

Ideas?
