Don't bother with repo copies at all? :) Given that the history still exists in the old location I've never seen the point. The other answer of course is to convert the ports repo to svn. Then the mere-mortal developers can just do 'svn cp' at the moment it's needed, which means it will be completely up to date. The other advantage to svn in this case is that the "copy" doesn't bloat the repo the way cvs repo copies (which actually are a physical copy of the relevant files) do.
