I have exactly the same problem. There are apps which are able do handle multiple adressbooks.
would be great if also davdroid could handle this.

Thanks for the response, @devvv4ever ! You raise some good points about duplicate contacts and merging algorithms, and I agree that such ideas are well beyond the scope of DAVx5. However, I have yet to find a FOSS (or even just freely-available) app that does a good job of simply copying contacts between accounts. Samsung may have one, but I don’t have a Samsung phone.

My plan for merging the CopyContacts app I linked into DAVx5 was to create a new DAVx5 contact store for any existing contact store the user wants DAVx5 to manage. Basically, like you, I also wanted to avoid the issue of contact merging. Sure, this would create a lot of extra accounts/contact stores, but it would at least allow existing contacts to be merged (and synced) by DAVx5.

Thoughts?

I know the source is on GitHub, but is there an issue tracker or any other development documentation for people who are interested in contributing?

You’re welcome discuss about issues here in the forum. At the moment, there’s no issue tracker because it has been (mis)used as a discussion and support platform (which clearly is not the purpose of an issue tracker). Also, we’ll probably move to another git hosting platform (Gitlab).

Unfortunately, there’s not much development documentation, but I try to add Javadoc (and tests) constantly.
