Missing Comments?

[conlan]

Hey there! Loving this tool so far -- the only issue is that it appears that comments aren't preserved after verifying?

You can see comments here:

but not showing up on etherscan verification:

Lemme know if you need any more details or if this is a known issue :)

Hi @conlan, thanks for opening this issue. A similar point was raised by @prestwich in #15 about seemingly random linebreaks, that turned out to be removed comments. Comments are removed because truffle-plugin-verify uses sol-merger to flatten source files, which deletes the comments.

In #15 @RyuuGan said he didn't want to implement comment parsing in sol-merger, but I can imagine that he'd be open to a good PR that adds preservation of comments.

If it's important that comments are preserved, the best way would probably be to raise such a PR to the sol-merger repository.

Hey @rkalis okay thanks! I've found actually the exact issue here: RyuuGan/sol-merger#19. Will move this over there!
