Hi, Background: I use Shotwell the following way. I have a desktop computer where I keep all my pictures and then I have a small laptop that I bring with me when I am travelling that I use to download the pictures from my camera and sometimes organize and publish them during my longer trips. Both computers are running the latest version of Ubuntu, and the version of Shotwell that comes with it.
Problem: I do not want to keep the whole database of pictures on the small laptop because of space constraints on the disk. So, after every trip, I would like to copy the photos to the desktop and delete them from the laptop. I can do this easily by copying the picture files with tools such as rsync and then importing again. The problem is that any information contained in ~/.shotwell/data/photo.db on the laptop is not transferred to the corresponding database on the desktop. For example, any tags I may have added using the laptop are lost. Question1: is there a good way to merge the SQLite databases without breaking Shotwell functionality? Question2 (feature request): could it be possible to add a function in Shotwell that merges the databases and copies the picture files between different computers? Thank you for the great job you have done so far!!
