Only those relevant to the version of FreeBSD from which you are
updating.  For example, if you are updating from 5.3 to 5.4 then you
should read any relevant entries describing changes made between these
time periods, which may require you to take special action to
accomodate.

In addition there are universal instructions in that file that apply
to all updates of FreeBSD (basically instructions on how to update).
