Right, without the -i flag, it's in "update mode." So it checks the
dates on all the URLs in the database to see if they've changed. If
they have, it reindexes them. If not, it goes to the next URL.

You can create a new config file (say new.conf) and use that for
indexing your new sites. Then you'd do something like this:
htmerge -m new.conf -c htdig.conf
htmerge -c htdig.conf
The first command will merge the databases specified by new.conf into
the others. The second command updates the databases for searching.
