1. Csup is in the base system thus obvious preferred to either cvsup
or portsnap
Correct me if I am wrong; however, I thought that 'portsnap' was part
of the base system.
Yes, portsnap is part of the base system, as is csup.
csup and cvsup are equivalent unless you need to create a local
repository (i.e. getting the RCS ,v files) which is not required for
anyone simply wishing to use the ports tree for building apps. This
feature is only available in cvsup.
As for the OP, the tag to get the ports for FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE would be:
RELEASE_6_2_0
This is mentioned in the handbook,
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvs-tags.html
(the paragraph text in A.7.2)
but may be it is not clear enough, since all the examples that follow
refer to the src tree tags (which start with RELENG)
