fwiw, when doing port updates, i have this in my $SHELL history that i
frequently recall:
rm pkg/PLIST.orig ; mv pkg/PLIST.new  pkg/PLIST

PLIST.orig is usually from a previous update in the same port that i
never cleaned up. Iff we'd want to keep it, maybe we could move .orig to
.orig.$epoch, but other than that i'd silently (or verbosely ?) do:
mv pkg/PLIST pkg/PLIST.orig
mv pkg/PLIST.new pkg/PLIST

instead of manually having to act about a .orig i generally dont care
about.
