Hi maziar ,

# cd /usr/ports/www/nginx && make patch

Make your code changes in /usr/ports/www/nginx/work/nginx-PORTVERSION/

Finally: make install.

Please note, that you have to save a copy of your modified files, because they will be gone after the next make [dist]clean. You can also make patch-files:
