Does this actually work?

I just tried:

mkdir manual-merge
cd manual-merge/
mtn -d test.mtn db init
mtn -d test.mtn setup -b test .
head -c 16 /dev/zero  > zeros
mtn add zeros
mtn ci . zeros -m "zeros"
mtn attr get zeros
  -> No attributes for 'zeros'

It does set it for a file with a .png extension.
