"""Collapse the duplicate backup revisions left by the shared-machine-number bug. Dedup used to compare a posted config against the latest revision for the ASSET. That is correct only when a machine number means one PC. Several PCs legitimately share one here - the part markers on 0613, 0615 and WJPRT, whose configs differ by COM port - so each marker's post differed from whichever marker had posted last, nothing ever deduped, and the table grew by one row per PC per collection cycle. Dedup is now per source hostname; this cleans up what the old rule wrote. A machine number that is NOT meant to be shared but shows two sources here is a different fault - two PCs carrying the same machine number - and this script will report it as two chains. Deal with that at the PC, not in the database. WHAT IT REMOVES, and nothing else: within one chain (asset + kind + source hostname), a revision whose content hash equals the revision immediately before it from the same source. Those rows record no change and are exactly the rows the fixed code would not have created. WHAT IT KEEPS: every genuine change, in order; the newest revision of every chain; the oldest revision of every chain; and every chain of every source, so a quiet PC's only backup is never touched. A config that reverts to an earlier state keeps both rows, because that is a real change and not a duplicate. Share-backed kinds (partmarker) are metadata rows pointing at files on the share. Deleting a row does not touch the file. Usage (on the target instance, in the app dir): venv\\Scripts\\python scripts\\collapse_duplicate_backup_revisions.py venv\\Scripts\\python scripts\\collapse_duplicate_backup_revisions.py --commit ... --assetnumber 0615 # limit to one machine ... --kind ntlars # limit to one kind Dry run by default: it prints what it would delete and changes nothing. Take a database backup before --commit anyway; this deletes rows.
