Not sure if I have missed something though. I think we can continue to fetch without truncating if currentState is Fetching when `lastFetchedEpoch` is known. If we need to truncate, we will do that later when we get told about diverging epochs. Does that make sense? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
