## About

portzap is a utility for staying up to date with the
HardenedBSD ports tree.

portzap is designed to allow unprivileged users who are members 
of the `_portzap` group to create and update a transient copy of 
the ports tree, which can then be installed into the `/usr/ports/`
directory by root. 

Once the initial installation is complete, future updates are 
incremental, which means that portzap will only add, remove or 
update ports that have changed since the last update.

## Usage

* __portzap clone__ <br>
  Clones the ports tree into `/home/_portzap/ports/`.

* __portzap pull__ <br>
  Pulls updates into `/home/_portzap/ports/`.

* __portzap install__ <br>
  Installs `/home/_portzap/ports/` into `/usr/ports/`. <br>

## Install

portzap can be installed through git, or via a port. <br>
The port makes installation, and deinstallation easier.
