Yes, for fgdata merging back from the 2.2.0 branch will not work.

I'm a bit at loss why the 2.2.0 branch was reduced to contain only the 
data package contents instead of being a snapshot of everything to 
be included in the release - presumably there will be archives for the 
download page generated also for the aircraft removed in the 2.2.0 
branch. Hopefully their state in master will still be 2.2.0 compatible at 
that time..

For the next release maybe we could create two release branches in data
2.x.0-full and 2.x.0-datapackage, where the first serves as the full 
data release and the latter whatever purpose (snapshot generation?) the 
2.2.0 branch serves now.

Cheers,

Anders
