Probably, its just what I got when I fetched your branches this morning
(my time).

OK, I will try to remember.

Part of the problem (for me) is that you sometimes update all your
branches in the middle of my day (I am not asking you to stop doing
that - I can cope), so the mm-hotifxes that I have merged early on does
not match the new mm-hotfixes-* branches that get merged as part of mm
(mm-everything) later in the day.  This occasionally causes conflicts,
but they are invariably trivial and fixed by using the versions of
files from the new branches.  I am wondering if maybe I should merge
mm-everything early (but after I have merged and tested all the -fixes
branches) to narrow the race condition :-)
