- Priority: 3-Normal (New)
- Summary: Comment changes lead to duplicate comment entries (New)
- Short description:
"When comments are modified, the original text will be replaced by the modified text. But each change triggers the creation of a new Activity which in turn points to the current Attachment (where the comment is stored). So we end up with 2 or more Activities pointing to the same data."

*Comment Hussayn Dabbous*

I have added a checker within NotificationManager for Activities pointing to the same attachment.
Duplicates will be filtered out.

Pro: When a comment changes before the notification is sent out, we no longer see duplicates in the EMail text.
Con: We loose the time stamps for the changes.

An absolute correct implementation would be to store and show the diffs induced by a comment modification. But this is currently well beyond any practical usage.

fix committed in rev 11003
