Hmmm, where does blizzard update from?

Sure. CVSup does not delete files, it doesn't know about.
Certainly it doesn't know anything about fart and therefore
won't touch it. This is intended behaviour of CVSup.
(Think about the "make readmes" nightmare, that several
 users, including me stubled across. The README.html files
 never get deleted and so you are stuck with dozens of
 virtually empty and outdated port directories).

I don't see any difference than 'fart'. Maybe I'm blind, but
then the order is mixed up. Maybe you should use 'ls -1' to avoid
confusion by multicolumn output.

See above.
