As George Reid said, you are using the wrong tags.  To be more specific,
here's a quote from /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile:

###############################################################################
#
# DANGER!  WARNING!  LOOK OUT!  VORSICHT!
#
# If you add any of the ports collections to this file, be sure to
# specify them like this:
#
#   ports-all tag=.
#
# If you leave out the "tag=." portion, CVSup will delete all of
# the files in your ports tree.  That is because the ports collections
# do not use the same tags as the main part of the FreeBSD source tree.
#
###############################################################################

I'd say that was an explicit enough warning :P

G'luck,
Peter
