Bug Description
During upgrade from Jammy to Kinetic, I get asked what to do because my sshd_config has been modified. I say to do a 3-way merge. It says 3-way merge fails. I shrug, figure I'll just restore my customizations with Ansible after the upgrade like I always do, and tell it to use the vendor version of the file. This removes my custom Port settings, so they are not migrated over to the ssh.socket settings like https:/
I don't know what the right answer is here, but I really feel like some effort needs to be put into figuring out a smoother transition for people who are upgrading to Kinetic.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and trying to make Ubuntu better.
Most relevant information can be found in the discourse post you mentioned. Could you please share your customization of the configuration file? So we can understand better the upgrade path you are going through.
I am setting the status to Incomplete until you provide more information, once you do that please set it back to New and we will take a look again.
