If a suitable software exists for you in the Ports/Packages you may use it ,
otherwise it may be necessary to download related sources of your selected
software
and compile and use it .

For some projects supplying tarballs , they may also supply a Version
Control Facility
such as Subversion or Git which you may continuously upgrade your system
incrementally by using a clone of their Version Control Facility.


Thank you very much .
