Hi,
I'm upgrading form 4.6-RELEASE to 4.6-STABLE.
When I get to the *second* run of mergemaster (after installworld), I'd be interested to hear the list's comments on using options to start mergemaster.

For example, have you had good luck with:
mergemaster -i -u (install any files that don't already exist, and attempt to install any files that haven't been user-modified)

Also, what is the first line of a file used for? What parts of the OS 'care' about that line? What would happen if I kept the existing file below, with it's older date and version #? (This is just a made-up example).

keep this existing file:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/csh.cshrc,v 1.3 1999/08/27 23:23:40 peter Exp $
my custom line
blah

delete this (fake) temporary file:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/csh.cshrc,v 1.4 2000/08/27 23:23:40 peter Exp $
blah
blah

I hope that's clear...?

Charles
