Go through these images more carefully, and decide whether to promote them to a 3 star rating, or put them back down to a lower rating. Alter the lighttable view to only show images with 2 stars.Continue in this manner until no more images remain visible in the lighttable view. Any images that no longer have a 1 star rating will automatically disappear from view. If you would like an image to pass to the next review phase, press 2 to give it a 2 star rating. Perform a quick first-level screening of your images: If any images are badly out-of-focus or otherwise unwanted, reject them or give them a 0-star rating (by pressing the “R” or “0” keys, respectively, while hovering over the image with your mouse).You can use the collections module to further refine your selection if needed.

If an image has already been added to the database, any updates you have made to the sidecar file will be loaded. On import, darktable will read the metadata from the image files and any accompanying XMP sidecar file. There are three ways to import images, each accessible through buttons in the import module: add to library This option adds images to the library without copying or moving – your original files will stay in their current location and will not be altered.
