Hi David,
       I took at a look at this with an image I worked on yesterday. I created 
three duplicates of the original in DT so there were four xmp files in total. I 
named the duplicates, so they made sense to me. However, today when I look at 
the XMP files in the folder the duplicates are simply differentiated by the 
addition of and _01, _02 or _03. If I looked at the image in DT I could 
translate that back to which was which. I am not sure this answer helps you, 
but it confirms your difficulty. I presume you could add the XMP file and give 
it unique identification by copying the naming system used by DT and putting an 
underscore and the next version number. In my case that would be _4.

Good luck,
       Terry

Subject: [darktable-user] xmp files


I have several images that have numerous 'duplicates'.

Is there a way to see which duplicate relates to which xmp ... I cannot see 
anything in the image file that provides this information.

If I wish to add another (outside generated) xmp file to create a further 
version what is the best procedure?

David
