Dear Enji,

it's probably high time to stop escalating this thread. Some people like
the way in which mergemaster copes with updates, some people like
etcupdate. With Git clean and smudge filters applied on local repo and
$FreeBSD$ IDs regenerated, mergemaster still works great and is more
ergonomic in use for at least two people.

Kind regards,
