+
+This describes the "refuse" file found in this directory. The
+explanation cannot be put inside the file itself because:
+
+ COMMENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN refuse FILES!
+
+Each line of the refuse file contains one or more filename patterns
+separated by white space. Everything matched by a pattern will be
+left untouched by CVSup. If a pattern matches a directory, then
+everything beneath that directory will be left alone.
+
+You can copy "refuse" to your sup directory and add or remove
+whatever you like. The example supfiles in this directory set
+CVSup's base directory to "/var/db". The sup directory is in the base
+directory; i.e., it is "/var/db/sup". If you have changed your base
+directory, your sup directory is /path/to/base/sup.
+
+This file used to contain /usr/src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc in case
+you modified that file. However, this was removed as it can break
+buildworld. Modify /etc/mail/`hostname`.mc instead.
+
+If you are an English speaker and don't wish to receive the
+foreign-language documentation or ports, use the following patterns:

+ doc/da_*
+ doc/de_*
+ doc/el_*
+ doc/es_*

+
+Use refuse files with care. Some parts of the src distribution
+depend on files in completely different parts.
+
+For more information about refuse files see cvsup(1), which is
+installed by the "cvsup" and "cvsup-bin" ports. See also the CVSup
+FAQ at <http://www.cvsup.org/faq.html>.
