This method merges the parent node setup documents and settings into the child node settings. This involves copying inherited settings from the parent to the child, changing settings on the child that override parent settings, and leaving settings on the child that are new. This flattens the hierarchy and provides an effective view of the settings from the perspective of the child node.
