I use script:

#!/bin/sh
(
date
fgrep date= /etc/stable-supfile
cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/stable-supfile
date
) 2>&1 | tee /var/log/sup.src.`date +%s`

(pathnames may differ)

A few last cvsup logs are kept for seeing exact date.

Also, on some machines src/sys/conf/newvers.sh is manually patched
every time to produce exact date/time in `uname -r' output.
