[josm-dev] why the new question?

[Karl Guggisberg]

Hi,

There's a ticket in trac
  http://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/3200
which is most likely related to what you propose here.

Could you please add a comment there?

Betreff: [josm-dev] why the new question?

Why does JOSM now prompt me to save something which I've already uploaded,
even though it was never saved in the past?

Seems to me that this new change solves a problem I wasn't experiencing.
Here's how I think it should work, which is how it used to work (as far as I
know):

0) If I load a layer and don't change it, I should never be asked if I want
to delete it.

1) If I download a layer from the web, change it, and upload it, I shouldn't
be asked if I want to save it.  If I don't upload it, I should be prompted
"You haven't uploaded these changes yet:
Upload&Delete, Discard Changes, Cancel"

2) If I load a layer from a file, change it, and save it, I shouldn't be
asked if I want to save it.  If I don't save it, I should be prompted "You
haven't uploaded these changes yet: Save&Delete, Discard Changes, Cancel"

3) If I load a layer from a file, and upload it, that will remove the
internal modification marks.  That counts as a change.  See #2.

4) If I load a layer from the web, change it, and save it as a file, I
shouldn't be asked if I want to upload it.
