csup deletes files that are deleted upstream (so if an svn
commit were to remove a file from the source tree). It did
not delete files that were locally added (like work/ directories
for port builds, or kernel config files) that were never in
the repository in the first place.
I think that is the approach you probably want to take by default.
That is also how the stock svn client acts.
