I'm looking for comments / suggestions to improve my general updating script. Its purpose is to maintain system updates, ports, 3rd-party, keep things clean and well behaved.
Manual verification of /usr/ports/CHANGES is, well, manual.
I also diff the ports list output just to report any updates upon completion, if I wasn't paying attention (or a 100 minute gcc recompile happens). Beyond this, what could be improved with the following script? Have I missed any obvious key FreeBSD related updates? Should commands be reordered?

Code:
#!/bin/bash
mv ~/portupdates/ports.current ~/portupdates/ports.last
freebsd-update fetch install
pkgdb -LFa
portsnap fetch update
portupgrade -aD
portsclean -C -D -DD
gem update
portmaster -l > ~/portupdates/ports.current
