migrate to new MBP?

This is a stupid question, I know, but a new MBP is coming tomorrow... What is the best way to migrate my macOS Sierra install to it?


I don't think Migration Assistant is friendly when going across OS versions, so if I wanted to use that I suppose I would have to upgrade the MBP to macOS Sierra preview first, and then do the migration from the old system.


If I do a drive clone onto it, I don't know of any way to mass convert the old ByHost preference files to the new hardware ID... Does Migration Assistant handle that?


Anyway, thought I'd see if others had done it, but tomorrow I will have to figure something out. LOL


Thanks!
