Above is from working/experimenting with Brad; my sense is that things
aren't quite settled yet (with respect to UPDATING recommendations).

Happy to help when I can. :-)

hello - i am still having issues with mergemaster when

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2019-May/073403.html

my source contains the fix that I think we committed to address the
original issue, are there any other steps required to get things working:
*** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot
   *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use
   *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot

cp: /usr/home/pete/git/freebsd/etc/master.passwd: No such file or directory

Yes: you need to actually install that (new) version of mergemaster
before you try to use it.

E.g.:
pushd usr.bin/mergemaster && make install; popd

Then re-start the userland installation (e.g., "mergemaster -p ...") and
proceed with the rest of the install as usual.


Ah OK, i think missed that in the thread - and the promised update to 
the UPDATING file in the commit doesn't seem to have landed yet either.


Thanks David!
