Importing divelogs from other software
--------------------------------------
Subsurface will import divelogs from a couple of other log software. We
support currently XML exports from DivingLog as well as Suunto
DiveManager. Native format of JDivelog and MacDive are imported as well.
When importing dives subsurface tries to detect multiple records for
the same dive and merges the information as best as it can. So as long

beginning time of the dives to be substantially different) subsurface
will not create duplicate entries.
