Description
Hello,
There seems to be an issue in JOSM where, under certain conditions, an object's history is not preserved—for example, when two points are merged using the “m” command.
Example:
I merged point 11274726715 with point 11307147039 because the former had been mapped at the wrong location.
This should have also written the history of point 11307147039, since its position was adopted.
However, point 11274726715 contains the history of point 11307147039. Could you please check this and fix it?
Thanks, Protoxenus

JOSM retains the history of the oldest point. It does not COPY the history. Only thing JOSM can do is decide which of the two point IDs it is using when merging. By default it uses the older one. For a few actions the user can decide.
Sorry, typo:
It should read:
However, point 11274726715 does NOT contain the history of point 11307147039.
