If you're following the -stable branch, you will receive security
(and, as of late, some feature) updates to your ports tree. If you
want/need a feature that isn't backported to -stable but is in
-current, you have to do the (unsupported) backporting yourself.

You get the new ports when you update your system to the next
release.
