Usually I personally develop and fix issues in master branch and
backport the related commits to stable branches with 'git cherry-pick
-x' like shown in
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdesdk/umbrello/repository/revisions/65d3e16809d780f06d7a2a0feb0dd2be9246c0f8

4 days ago I tried the way you mentioned: I fixed an issue in kde 4.13
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdesdk/umbrello/repository/revisions/7f661fed65d5948e4de14981858241f63ea8e8de
and tried to merge it into 4.14 and master and got the same bad
experience :-(

The question is why is merging old umbrello branches so much work ? Is
there any better way ?

Any official way to verify this ? 

Today I did run the following
git checkout -f KDE/4.14
git rebase origin/KDE/4.13
# skip all conflicted commits
git pull --rebase

At the end I got two additional commits: One of them  
45d7fb6301b2f6f4b2cc595dbd85e8b6f415d43b I have to revert because it was
outdated and lead to compile failures.

 Ralf
