disable merges that would damage relations #1512
Comments
Would these uses cases be disabled as well?
Actually, most merges where values are different should not be done without warning the user first? |
Note that this is already partially implemented: many cases where merging would damage relations are already prohibited by iD. This issue is still open because the behavior could be extended to cover more cases. |
Hi there. Recently, there were 8 editions in Portugal which damaged major relations. This was done by a mapper that merged ways and changed those relations unwittingly (I presume). Even I have to pay a lot of attention when merging something, because there's no warning about merging elements which belong to different relations. and I know I damaged some relations in this way when I started mapping with iD. Regards. |
Certain merge operations are unambiguously wrong, e.g.:
We should investigate if it is possible to reliably distinguish such merges from safe merges, and disable the operation in those cases while providing a message in the tooltip explaining why it's disabled.
