If we want to support a use case where we LTO files with different profile data, perhaps we should have a way to disable profile summary for those builds? That seems better than picking the first summary we see (as would be the case with a warning)


Yeah that seems reasonable. I'm not sure what the right way to do this is, but dropping the ProfileSummary metadata and giving up on any further merging when we encounter a conflict seems like the right idea. What do you think is the correct path forward here?
