You're using portsnap for your updates, I presume? Subversion will not
override local changes (at least not without asking first). I have a tree
here that contains local ports and locally modified ports. That's exactly
why I use SVN instead of portsnap.

You might get similar results if you use Git to update your tree, I don't
know about that.

Yes, you do. While i really dislike Git for many reasons it is a very helpful tool when working on greater port-projects. You can fork and branch and incorporate the upstream changes whenever you feel it right.
