utc_id_suffix UUID algorithm
I thought I'd follow the rough spirit of the proposed merge process for
this pull request. I'm unsure whether I should be making a pull request now, or
continuing discussion on the JIRA ticket. Please let me know if I'm doing the
wrong thing.
I'd like to propose this code to be tested and merged into the master
branch.
The associated JIRA ticket is:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1373
[X] The branch includes tests. JavaScript and etap tests are included.
[X] The branch includes docs. default.ini.tpl.in documents the new
utc_id_suffix algorithm.
[X] `make distcheck` has not been tested. I don't have all the pieces
needed for this, so am hoping one of the dev team can do this final step and
let me know if there are any errors.
Note that the algorithm is as proposed in the existing patches attached to
the JIRA issue, with some extra tests. There was a proposal to use the MAC
address, but the possible difficulties with Solaris, and Bob Dionne's final
JIRA comment led me to leave it out.
Thanks for your consideration
Nick North
