I can’t seem to patch two vectors together with an attribute table then use the

v.patch's -e option, but I need the attribute table. Any way around this?
I was able to get it to work by using v.db.renamecolumn to rename columns that
would be duplicates when truncated by v.patch.
I am kind of surprised we can only use columns with 10-characters, and using
v.patch uses two of the characters (it appends a_ etc.). 8 characters isn’t
exactly a lot. Is there are reason why columns have this limitation?
That's linked to your use of the DBF format for attribute tables. Switch
to SQLite (current default).
