If you keep all your edition on darktable, the most probable reason
for disagreement is xmp file corruption and non-updates because of
power failure, and then the database should be the most accurate
source.


In my case, this is more or less the norm. I use darktable on three different computers; the photo repository is shared and kept in sync between the three (via unison, which is a kind of rsync). Keeping in sync the database is not viable (different computers, very difficult to avoid corruption if I have two darktable left opened on two computers, etc).

So I rely on the "xmp scan" features, and always give preference to the sidecar. It has worked ok the last couple of years, provided that the version of DT on the three machine is always the same.
