Hey there folks,

In doing a bunch of updates on my 15 VM recently to get around some of the recent breakages, I haven't been fully religious about running etcupdate every time, and it's now complaining that I have some results from a prior merge.

The man page is *long*, and we have puppet manifests to alter the few things we care about from a stock system (mostly some sshd stuff).

Is there a simple etcupdate command that says "I don't care about fancy 3-way merges and diffs, please just blow my /etc back to stock and I'll correct it with puppet?"

-Dan
