I think it's a bug that "mtree -C" does not merge multiple lines
for the same file.

For example, given

    mtree -C -K all -f - <<EOF
    . type=dir
    ./foo type=dir uid=123 tags=tag1
    ./foo type=dir tags=tag2
    EOF

I would expect the output to be

    . type=dir
    ./foo type=dir uid=123 tags=tag1,tag2

bit it is actually

    . type=dir
    ./foo type=dir tags=tag2
