A folder contained in an already shared folder with two groups appears twice for an user in these two groups.

[le-fractal]

A variation of #9724 with subfolders

Let's assume these folders :

/FolderA/
/FolderA/FolderB

and two groups Group1 and Group2, who both include our user

Steps to reproduce

1. Share FolderA with Group1
2. Share FolderB with Group2

Expected behaviour

The user already has access to FolderB through the sharing of FolderA with Group1, so the second sharing should not show up

Actual behaviour

the user has two copies of FolderB :
/FolderA/FolderB
/FolderB

Server configuration

Operating system: CentOS 6

Web server: apache

Database: mysql 5.5

PHP version: 5.4

ownCloud version: 8.1.5

Updated from an older ownCloud or fresh install: upgrade

Possible duplicate, I think I've seen this before.

Yes and without a big performance penalty there is not much we can do about it.

To merge those two things we need to find out for each share if (one of) the parent folders is already shared with this user. And then for the folder merge the permissions.

@PVince81 certianly not something we can fix for 9.0
