combine_handles

[ekg]

I'd like to match divide_handle with an inverse function that combines handles back together.

This would be the signature:

handle_t combine_handles(const std::vector<handle_t>& handles);

Any thoughts?

I think we'd want to have some requirement about the edge structure. We should really only be merging handles that form a non-branching path in the graph.

That's a good point. The edge structure has to be unbranching and paths have to be contiguous across the set of nodes to merge. I'm not sure how useful this is. I guess it helps for simplifying the graph structure.
