Please prevent duplicate fixlets from being added to baselines in the next release.

Thanks

Displaying a warning about duplicates would be appropriate, but disallowing them goes too far. We have reusable code segments multiple times in a baseline on purpose.

Couldn’t you just treat it as a duplicate if the fixlet ID was the same (and not based on code content)? Or did you mean you use the same fixlet multiple times in a baseline?

I would be happy with warnings.

There are cases where we use the same custom task (containing reusable custom code) two or three times in the same baseline.

Ok, warnings of some kind would be good then. We sometimes have a lot of fixlets in a baseline, and sometimes we will add duplicates by mistake (hard to eyeball it), thus increasing the processing time on the baseline unnecessarily.

Thanks
