merge: remove confusing comment about --force

manifestmerge() has a piece of code that's roughly:

  if not force and different:
      abort
  else:
      # if different: old untracked f may be overwritten and lost
      ...

The comment only talks about what happens when 'different' is true,
and in combination with the if-block above, that must mean that it is
only about what happens when 'force and different'. It seems quite
fine that files are overwritten when 'force' is true, so let's remove
the comment. As it stands, it can easily be interpreted as a TODO
(which is how I interpreted it at first).

#!/usr/bin/python
from mercurial.ui import ui
from mercurial.localrepo import localrepository
from mercurial.commands import add, commit, status

u = ui()

print '% creating repo'
repo = localrepository(u, '.', create=True)

f = open('test.py', 'w')
try:
    f.write('foo\n')
finally:
    f.close

print '% add and commit'
add(u, repo, 'test.py')
commit(u, repo, message='*')
status(u, repo, clean=True)


print '% change'
f = open('test.py', 'w')
try:
    f.write('bar\n')
finally:
    f.close()

# this would return clean instead of changed before the fix
status(u, repo, clean=True, modified=True)
