The only reason I did not do it your way was because we would
need to have three lines per driver (one [merge "foo"] section

and it was late.
perhaps we can extend the config syntax to also support an entry
on the same line as the category:
[merge "ancient"] driver=merge...
This would allow an one-line merge driver definition and would play
nice with your [attr] macro definition.
Perhaps we should also add the = to macro definitions?
[attr] binary=nocrlf nodiff merge=binary
Hmm, but then we would get multiple meanings for "=" on the same line,
so nevermind.
Or use some whitespace:
[attr] binary = nocrlf nodiff merge=binary
Does this look better?
