#228 skipped a vCard whose UID the book already held. The reporter asked for
the opposite on #174 and he is right: the reason to import a file a second
time is usually that the first one was not right, so skipping means a
corrected export corrects nothing.
A merge, not a replacement. Properties the file carries overwrite what is
here; properties it does not mention are left alone, so a phone number added
in ihasmail after the first import survives a re-import of the original file.
The cost is that a field genuinely deleted at the source stays here, which is
the better way to be wrong -- the other way round loses work nobody asked to
lose. Worth confirming with him rather than assuming.
`addressBookIds` is left off the patch. The card is already in this book, so
saying it again says nothing, and saying it on a card that is also in another
book would move it.
Creates and updates now share one batch budget. Stalwart counts every object
in a /set together, so batching the halves separately would send 300 new and
300 changed as two calls of 300 and be refused for a limit of 500 that neither
half exceeds.
LDIF is untouched and still reports look-alikes without acting on them, since
what it should match on is the question still open on #223. Both imports keep
one answer shape so a caller need not know which it called; LDIF's `updated`
is always 0, which is the honest number rather than a missing field.
The message a vCard attached to a message shows changes with it: the newer
copy now wins instead of being dropped, so it says the contact was brought up
to date rather than that nothing was added.
Refs #223.
