            Bug ID: 465652
           Summary: Rescan activated for all collection when adding new
                    collection
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 7.9.0
          Platform: macOS (DMG)
                OS: macOS
            Status: REPORTED

SUMMARY
I do have a collection or roughly 80 000 photos that are kept under NAS device
(Nextcloud with webdav via mountainduck). I'm in the middle off consolidating
all my external disks to single storage and plugged new external disk and added
it as a new collection. At the same time my network disk was mounted from wrong
folder (bug by mountainduck, bookmark had subpath defined). Right after I
finished to add new external disk all my photos from NAS device was removed.

I have configured Digikam not to scan any files automatically and I have not
selected collections to monitor for changes.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add new collection

OBSERVED RESULT
All collections were rescanned


EXPECTED RESULT
Only added collection to be scanned

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 13.2 (22D49)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is not such huge issue as it is recoverable by scanning files again. It
will take easily a full day to san 930Gb of images and some videos. 

Digikam has worked out well and I do now have rather decent workflow with
Piwigo to send images and organise them without Apple or Google services. Only
annoyance is this collection management that seems to break rather easily. This
was not first time I have had the same. I was hoping that mountain duck would
solve some of the issues, but it seems not to be perfect.

I would just hope that I could manage how and when collections are scanned to
avoid this kind of a problems. Now settings that exists does not seem to allow
that.
