Well, for ports this is mostly fine, though on several places I prefer to use csup (or svn now) even for ports, since I maintain quite a set of local patches - this sometimes gives problems together with potsnap. Where this is neede, I have a shared ports tree anyway, so the whole svn setup is only needed in one machine. But my main concern is the system sources anyway. freebsd-update is not feasible for me, as described in the original post.
