You have the duplicate commits anyway, merging the branch will not increase
their number. It also means you'll have to cherry-pick each bugfix done to
the KDE/4.10 branch manually into master, while merging gives you that for
free.

If the cherry-picked commits applied cleanly in KDE/4.10 when you
cherry-picked them, then merging KDE/4.10 into  master will not generate
conflicts.
