The etcupdate utility is a tool for managing updates to files that are
not updated as part of `make installworld' such as files in /etc. It
manages updates by doing a three-way merge of changes made to these files
against the local versions. It is also designed to minimize the amount
of user intervention with the goal of simplifying upgrades for clusters
of machines.


# 258066 12-Nov-2013 jhb

Add a pre-world mode of updating similar to the -p option that can be
passed to mergemaster. In this mode, only changes to /etc/master.passwd
and /etc/group are merged to /etc. In addition, it uses a temporary
tree to stage these changes rather than overwriting the existing
'current' and 'previous' trees so that a full update can be run after
a normal installworld has completed.
