The Gnus guys also do two-way syncing and have to solve the same
problem.  A generic tool would be awesome.  I think two-way syncing of
branches is a major problem with current VCS technology and I'm eagerly
awaiting a good generic solution to it.  I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Even better if it can be run from a cron job (i.e. fully automatic and
deals with conflicts somehow (obviously, it can't resolve them, so it
needs to store them somewhere, make sure someone will see them and will
be able to resolve them, ...)).
