Description

Hello,

I am synchronizing an calendar using vdirsyncer locally for backup purpose, but there is one issue :
There are events with the same name but different content (recurring events), is there any way to syncrhonize it anyway?

warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics' warning: Skipping identical href: '/calendar/blabla@blabla.com/1/033ca661-68e8-4ba7-a672-c75a3d67617f.ics'

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the synchronization that emits the repeated “Skipping identical href” warning, then trace how identical hrefs are handled. Done would require a defined way to synchronize differing event content without losing or overwriting calendar data.
