Does import support the import of inter-issue dependencies?

0

You cannot declare dependencies between separate scarab xml files being imported; dependencies can only be reliably established (that is, reconciled) within a single xml import file. The way dependencies are done is that on import, after the validation parse and insert of issues, a dependency resolving step runs: It ‘decorates’ the just inserted issues w/ the interdependencies mentioned in the xml (providing certain information, like activity-set id, is correctly set between issues). This step must happen after insert because in order to make the interdependencies, the actual scarab issue ids must exist. At this time, it does not seem as though you can add dependencies via the xml import update mechanism.
