Alternate to merge statements for managing static data in SSDT projects
I have a database in which some of the tables are relatively static. To keep the data in sync between versions of the database I use merge statements generated by sp_generate_merge in post deploy scripts. This works fine. It however bothers my DBA, because merge statements are problematic.
Merge statements are relatively risk free in my use case, but if there is a way to generate safer T-SQL for the same end goal that is as easy as sp_generate_merge, I'd much rather do that.
