When I import photos from an SD card, I find that if I select the same
photo on subsequent batches. Shotwell merrily imports it again,
renaming e.g. <filename>.jpg as <filename>_1.jpg, <filename>_2.jpg and
so on. I would prefer that it just skip importing files with matching
names on the destination. I looked for a configuration setting to
modify this behavior but did not find it. There is a checkbox to 'Hide
photos already imported" but it only seems to work for photos imported
during that session, not those imported during any previous execution.

If there is presently a way to do this that I have overlooked, please
clue me in!

At present I'm using 0.5.0 on Ubuntu 10.04

many thanks,
hank
