can anyone brief about the switches with *msfupdate*?

as, while updating, noticed that first column shows letters like A, D,
U, etc.
As far as I guessed, stands for A-Auxiliary, D-Download, U-Upload...

Am I right?
if so, why is it uploading things from *my system*?

also, there was something suspicious row...
U    HACKING

which, i never noticed before.
Would someone like to explain, or am I being just paranoid?


Eric,

        Those are svn status update codes.

A - Added, this is for new files
D - Deleted, for when a file is removed from a project
U - Updated, the file has changed in the repository and has been updated on your system.
C - Conflict between file modified on your system and file modified in the repository.

Hope that helps,

Tom
