You can change it to what ever you want.
I have /usr/local/cvs/ and then various repositories
for different projects.

| doc-all, as you will wipe out what you already
| have. But, when you don't specify an individual
| release, just *default release=cvs and src-all,
| if you specify ports-all & doc-all, you won't
| wipe out what you already have. Am I understanding
| it correctly?
| Thanks in advance for your patience & any help
| & explanations I receive.

You want to cvsup ports-all with tag=. since
the ports dont change with each relase, just the src.
