Have the repair of a range repair *all* the replica for that range

                 Key: CASSANDRA-2610
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2610
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 0.8 beta 1
            Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
            Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.8.1


Say you have a range R whose replica for that range are A, B and C. If you run 
repair on node A for that range R, when the repair end you only know that A is 
fully repaired. B and C are not. That is B and C are up to date with A before 
the repair, but are not up to date with one another.

It makes it a pain to schedule "optimal" cluster repairs, that is repairing a 
full cluster without doing work twice (because you would have still have to run 
a repair on B or C, which will make A, B and C redo a validation compaction on 
R, and with more replica it's even more annoying).

However it is fairly easy during the first repair on A to have him compare all 
the merkle trees, i.e the ones for B and C, and ask to B or C to stream between 
them whichever the differences they have.
