Hi.
I try to build an org document that has two parts. One file contains
the first part of the resulting document and should be useable
stand-alone. The second file is some kind of extension to the first
file.
My idea is to simple #+INCLUDE the first file in the second one. But
then the global settings will be mixed. For example the keywords
contains all keywords of both files. Also some export options like
LATEX_EXTRA_HEADER are duplicated in some cases (I found no easy way
to reproduce this in the simple example).
Here are two example files:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TITLE: FILE A
#+KEYWORDS: a x
* First Section
Some text in file A.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TITLE: FILE B
#+KEYWORDS: b x
#+INCLUDE: a.org
* Second section
Some text in file b.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Is there a better way to handle this use-case or is it possible to
force org to ignore (global) settings on include (I tried only to
include lines after the global settings but that seems not to work).
My main target is LaTeX/PDF, but exporting to HTML shows similiar
problems.
GNU Emacs 24.4.1.
Org-mode version 8.2.10 (8.2.10-30-gca21b7-elpaplus).

When I used to do this in LaTeX, I usually had a /master/ document which
included the others. So, in your case, I would suggest a ~master.org~
document which includes your a.org and b.org documents, each of which
could be useable individually. This is more symmetric than one of them
including the other. The master document would be processed only when
you wanted to create a complete document export.
I hope this makes sense.

That's what I did with pure LaTeX, too. But then there is the nice
feature in AucTeX which allows you to compile the whole document while
you are in one of the slaves.
I'm just curious if the #+INCLUDE statement is supposed to work with
complete org documents full of global options or if it is intended to
work only with slave documents (as in the LaTeX case) without any kind
of preamble.
Maybe it would be a helful extension to give #+INCLUDE an option to
just ignore global settings?

You can skip the first lines of an INCLUDEd file with :line parameter.
You can also only include a section. See manual for details.

Thank you for the hint. I used something like
#+INCLUDE "a.org" :lines 3-
but still got duplicate keywords (the KEYWORDS option is in line 2 of
my example).
It seems, I got the syntax wrong. The correct version is
#+INCLUDE: a.org :lines "3-"
so the quotations marks around the parameter are mandatory and not
optional. Using the correct syntax everything works as expected.
