Maarten Coene commented on IVY-492:
-----------------------------------

For atomic publish support to filesystems, maybe we can use Jakarta 
commons-transactions?


> support atomic publish operation

> Some resolver types (e.g. one that uses subversion) could benefit from 
> publishing a module as a single atomic transaction.  Currently, each artifact 
> (and it's checksums) are published as separate operations, if one of the 
> artifact uploads fail (perhaps an artifact is missing or another user is 
> trying to publish the same version at the same time) the ivy repository can 
> be in an inconsistent state with a half published module.  In addition, if 
> uploads are logged many entries in the log are generated for a single logical 
> operation.
> A possible implementation strategy is to add three new methods to the 
> resolver interface:
> beginPublish(ModuleRevisionId)
> abortPublish()
> commitPublish()
> beginPublish would be called before publishing the artifacts of the module, 
> abortPublish would be called if there is an error while publishing the 
> module, commitPublish would be called if all artifacts were successfully 
> published.  Existing resolvers could simple implement these methods as no-ops 
> to retain the present behavior.
