Ummm, yes... Of course, you really want to filter out everything that
isn't a commit to ports, or a followup to such. And that's a minimal
filter for tracking -ports. Mine is more aggressive than that,
filtering for things that are changes to a Makefile that aren't tagged
as either an upgrade or an update.

I don't believe following freebsd-ports is required under any
conditions.
