Clarify preserved progress when merging duplicate books by jcapayne · Pull Request #76 · crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-sync

jcapayne · 2026-11-07T12:54:47Z

The merge picker and confirmation previously described moving one copy into another, which could suggest that choosing the wrong copy would overwrite a reader's position. The wording now explains that merging keeps the farthest-along position and combines clippings and service matches.

The confirmation wording when reading stats are included is:

The farthest-along reading position from either copy is kept. Clippings and service matches are combined.

Reading stats are combined too. Future syncs from either copy update this book.

When the reader disables combining stats, the confirmation instead says “Reading stats are not combined.” Merge behavior is unchanged.

Validation: all 19 book component tests pass, including cancellation, stats selection, failure, and retry.

Fixes #71.

Walkthrough

The merge dialog now clarifies the selected book and describes the reading position, clippings, service matches, reading stats, and future sync behavior. Tests now check the revised wording.

Changes: Book merge dialog

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Merge dialog wording and assertions `app/src/Book.jsx`, `app/src/Book.test.jsx`	The dialog describes the selected book and merge results. Tests check the updated title and descriptions. Reading stats are described as conditional on the selected option.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 93c1d

The dialog is clearer about which reading position is kept. It still does not say that, on conflicts, this book's clippings and service matches win. It also does not say that the other copy's stats stay hidden when stats combining is off. These are small copy fixes that can be made before or after merge.

that when combining is disabled, the selected copy’s per-book stats remain
stored under its own document ID but are excluded from this book’s stats,

Disclose conflicts in both merge dialogs.

If both books have a clipping with the same ID or a match for the same service, the merge keeps this book’s record. The selected book’s note or match can be lost.

Explain which stats remain visible when combining is disabled.

With stats disabled, the selected copy’s per-book stats are stored but excluded from this book’s stats, including future uploads under that copy’s document ID. “Future syncs from either copy update this book” does not explain that exception. Clarify it before confirmation. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Feels like copy is a bit long? How's it look on device?

It's not really an on device text? Here it is from an iPhone safari session:
