MacPorts doesn't have either of those features. You'll have to consult the Git 
repository:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports

We have a script called port-whatsnew which is supposed to tell you what 
changes have been committed to a port since you installed it:

https://github.com/macports/macports-contrib/blob/master/port-whatsnew/port-whatsnew

It doesn't work right now because it hasn't been updated to account for our 
move to GitHub. Still, it shows how you could determine what has changed in a 
repository since a date, and that idea could be extended to get the information 
you want.
