etcupdate does a 3-way merge.

What I did to replace mergemaster with etcupdate was:

rm -fr /usr/src
svnup release
etcupdate extract
rm -fr /usr/src
gitup release

cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make buildkernel

make installkernel
etcupdate -p
make installworld
etcupdate

make -DBATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES delete-old
make -DBATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES delete-old-libs

shutdown -r now
