Source Notes carried on to address move #185

Closed Deb-Jones closed 8 years ago

Deb-Jones commented 8 years ago

If the previous address change had source notes, a move will keep the previous source notes.

This may not be a new issue. I haven't directly tested for it. I noticed it when moving an address that I had previously done a roads reference data edit on.

Could cause confusion if the comment refers to a previous change. Not a show stopper for go live.

Please retest in next release.

Note; the config files requires an extra line "MERGE_EXCLUDE = 'workflow_sourceReason'"

This has been added to the config template

Deb-Jones commented 7 years ago

The source notes do not persist if the features have refreshed.

This is caused by the ConfigParser library which rewrites the entire config file from stored values every time it is saved. Comments don't get loaded when the keys/values are read so are lost when these values are resaved.
