Task #2279

Updated by Ram Kordale over 2 years ago

Today, we find a l-url as different from another url if it differs in one of section hierarchy, heading or o-url. 

 Given changes in how l-urls are being formed, we need to change how we create tba and tbr files. If l-url found in the new version is not found in old l-urls file, add it to tba. If a l-url is old l-urls file is not found in the new version, add it to tbr.  

 Moreover, create a new file hints.txt hints which contains entries as the following: 
 - <l-url U1 in tba>, <l-url U2 in tbr> [whenever the section hierarchy and o-url are the same for 'document in new version with lurl U1' and 'document in old version with lurl U2' because we think the two l-urls may be equivalent. Short background: l-url is created using source url and document heading. so, even if o-url changes,    and l-url does not change, it is referring to the same content. Thus, we dont have to tell Google that the page changed. when l-url changes, we have to inform Google. however, we need to check the reason behind it. in particular, we check if we have a bug. the new hints.txt file will provide help to developers and testers in this regard by telling two different l-urls may actually be referring to the same content.]
