 This section is only of interest for pkgsrc developers with write access to the
-pkgsrc repository. Please remember that cvs imports files relative to the
-current working directory, and that the pathname that you give the cvs import
-command is so that it knows where to place the files in the repository. Newly
-created packages should be imported with a vendor tag of "TNF" and a release
-tag of "pkgsrc-base", e.g:
-
-$ cd .../pkgsrc/category/pkgname
-$ cvs import pkgsrc/category/pkgname TNF pkgsrc-base
-
-Remember to move the directory from which you imported out of the way, or cvs
-will complain the next time you "cvs update" your source tree. Also don't
-forget to add the new package to the category's Makefile.
+pkgsrc repository.
+
+When the package is finished, "cvs add" the files. Start by adding the
+directory and then files in the directory. Don't forget to add the new package
+to the category's Makefile. Make sure you don't forget any files; you can check
+by running "cvs status". An example:
+
+$ cd .../pkgsrc/category
+$ cvs add pkgname
+$ cd pkgname
+$ cvs add DESCR Makefile PLIST distinfo buildlink3.mk patches
+$ cvs add patches/p*
+$ cvs status | less
+$ cd ..
+$ vi Makefile # add SUBDIRS+=pkgname line
+$ cvs commit Makefile pkgname
 
 The commit message of the initial import should include part of the DESCR file,
 so people reading the mailing lists know what the package is/does.
 
-For new packages, "cvs import" is preferred to "cvs add" because the former
-gets everything with a single command, and provides a consistent tag.
+Also mention the new package in pkgsrc/doc/CHANGES-20xx.
+
+Previously, "cvs import" was suggested, but it was much easier to get wrong
+than "cvs add".
