this will need to be changed, because it makes impossible to add releases with a discid under existing release group, but I'm not sure how yet

Merging is rather difficult now, since you never know which release with the same name is which :)

2009-04-05 09512, 2009

2009-04-05 09524, 2009
10:40 AM

only the name matters when merging a release group
2009-04-05 09538, 2009
10:40 AM
pronik
hmm
2009-04-05 09546, 2009
10:40 AM
pronik
there is probably no "main" release, right?
2009-04-05 09553, 2009
10:40 AM
luks
yes
2009-04-05 09517, 2009
10:41 AM
pronik
if you merge three releases with the same name, you have to remember which is which, since the edits won't be done by then yet
2009-04-05 09526, 2009
10:41 AM
pronik
example: rammstein / amerika single
2009-04-05 09551, 2009
10:41 AM
luks
you mean merging release groups or releases?
2009-04-05 09556, 2009
10:41 AM
pronik
So you'll merge 1->2 and then try to merge 3 to somewhere and can't distinguish 1 from 2
2009-04-05 09501, 2009
10:42 AM
pronik
release groups
2009-04-05 09517, 2009
10:42 AM
luks
if you are merging 3 release groups with the same name, then it basically doesn't matter which one you merge into
2009-04-05 09523, 2009
10:42 AM
pronik
currently there are three RGs: 1, 2 and 3 since auto-merging failed for those
2009-04-05 09535, 2009
10:42 AM
pronik
right, but read the scenario above again
2009-04-05 09542, 2009
10:42 AM
pronik
merging two of them is no problem
2009-04-05 09554, 2009
10:42 AM
pronik
deciding where to merge the third into is
2009-04-05 09512, 2009
10:43 AM

They have separate mbid's..
2009-04-05 09521, 2009
10:43 AM
pronik
not in the merge gui
2009-04-05 09535, 2009
10:43 AM
luks
how would you disambiguate them?
2009-04-05 09548, 2009
10:43 AM
pronik
good question, probably by number of releases
2009-04-05 09549, 2009
10:43 AM
luks
I think people would normally merge all three in on edit

that'd be fine too, but probably too cumbersome for mason server

How does merging work? I clicked merge under the RG, but it only gives me one option, not two.
2009-04-05 09542, 2009

Ah, but the other RG shows both.
2009-04-05 09556, 2009

2009-04-05 09504, 2009

it works the same way as you merge releases
2009-04-05 09513, 2009
10:46 AM

you add to the batch, and then merge all of them
2009-04-05 09538, 2009

Also, the UI that I had showed the individual MBIDs.
2009-04-05 09533, 2009

I'd say singles are separate RGs
2009-04-05 09555, 2009
