That's generally not a problem:  usually duplicate changes are dropped,
and I manually check the result to catch cases that weren't properly
handled automatically.  The duplicate change Richard mentioned was
simply one I missed.  Typically such errors occur in text files like
NEWS where they aren't that big a deal in the short term (given that
they're on the trunk with no impeding release about to be made from it).

So please commit your change to the branch if it is appropriate.

BTW, referring to it as a "script" is slightly misleading I think.
Though I'm using tools that make it easier, it's definitely a manual
process which I invoke by hand, and I check the results.
