Wolfram Schneider 4e1e1391ed portcheckout - checkout ports and all depending ports
Portcheckout(1) checks out a FreeBSD port and all runtime
       and buildtime depending ports into the current working
       directory.  The output is written to stdout as an
       executable shell-script.

       Compiling a FreeBSD port usually require a full tree of ports
       in /usr/port. A cvs checkout or a cvs update command takes
       a very long time and need much free space.

       With portcheckout, you checkout only the parts of the port
       tree which you really need. This is a magnitude faster!
