cannot sync - pulling is not possible because you have unmerged files

[Chris Jones]

Hi,

This is git, nothing to do with macports.

Looks like you have made some modifications to the ports in your local 
git checkout which conflict with what is being pulled in during the 
sync. You need to go into your git checkout and fix the conflicts, 
whatever they are, by hand before trying again.
