When merging from 3.2 to 3.3 "Misc/NEWS" always conflicts (lately). Instead of copy&paste the test manually between versions, has anybody a better workflow?.

If a bug is fixed in 3.2.latest, then it will not be new in 3.3.0, so perhaps it should not be added there. NEWS could just refer back to previous sections. Then 3.3.0 News would only be new features and the occasional ambiguous item not fixed before.
