Revisions

The merge and split buttons are part of the revision handling system. Recipes can have multiple revisions. Say you make different versions or tweaks to a recipe this usually means you create multiple recipes Vanilla1, Vanilla2 etc…When using revisions you can merge all these versions of a recipe and the older versions are stored as revisions. The recipe list will be cleaner and easier to read. So in the Vanilla case you will just have one recipe Vanilla with two revisions. The number of revisions for a recipe is shown in the list.

Merge

So, merge will merge the selected recipes and create one recipe with these recipes as different revisions. This is mostly used to be able to handle multiple recipes before the revision system was added to the calculator.

Split will remove all revisions of a recipe and add them back to the database as individual recipes.
