Manual. But your point is good; it's so easy to edit on a manual
revert that the overlap of identical text might not be that large.
Note that if you're looking at a database imported
from an XML dump,
that's a totally different matter; at the moment the dump importers
aren't smart enough to merge common text entries. (The XML dumps include
plain text in order to isolate the public-consumable data from our
ever-shifting implementation details.)
Right, I'm going off of a loaded XML dump, but was doing my own local
manual reverts here to see how the DB behaved.
And isolation from impl details are appreciated. ;-)
