freebsd-update not updating /usr/src/UPDATING

It seems not correct, because sources become new, but there is no information about changes in UPDATING file. Hard to maintain and make some confusion.

Also I noticed that updating by csup and by freebsd-update bring me different version of files. I means not major differences, but different in versions numbers. But this last may be ok.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just try to update by freebsd-update and check /usr/src/UPDATING
