Is there any way to join 2 trees with the same root?

Not that I know of, but it would be a great feature to add.

Yeah, seems useful feature. I am a little busy with job stuff. Are you interested to add this feature? @ghostku Call For Contributor...

implemented in v1.6.0 release #128

Actually the initial PR was ambiguous. There can be two types of paste:

• either placing a whole new_tree under a node of the initial_tree:
• either placing a the new_tree root children under a node of the initial_tree (more like a merge of trees on a given mutual node)

I'll propose a PR to clarify this.

I am also interested in this feature. Is there an updated estimate of the release of 1.6.0 ? (#128 mentions 01/24/2020)
