Hi,
After weeks of testing we are finally in a position to go forward with a fix for OAK-3348 [1]. This is a prerequisite for the segment store revision gc.
The amount of changes required for this fix is quite big and there will still be a couple of loose ends to knot once applied. Most prominently there will be incompatible changes in the persistence format: previous segment stores *WILL NOT WORK* once this fix is applied. However fear not, we will come up with clean migration paths as part of this effort.
So please bear with us in the next couple of weeks should it be a bit bumpy. However, apart from the format change none of the changes should directly affect any module outside of oak-segment. Should at some point oak-segment be too unstable for your purposes I suggest to temporarily replace the snapshot dependency to oak-segment with the latest release version.
Please review the fix for OAK-3348 at the respective GitHub branch [2] if you want to get your hand dirty. I placed FIXME OAK-3348 tags where further work is required and will follow up with dedicated issues as needed. Specifically there is a couple of tests that need fixing (mostly related to the change in persistent format and most of them within oak-segment):
oak-jcr: UpgradeTest.upgradeFrom10 oak-upgrade: AbstractOak2OakTest.validateMigration RepositorySidegradeTest.verifyGenericProperties oak-segment: FileStoreBackupTest CompactionAndCleanupIT.compactionNoBinaryClone CompactionAndCleanupIT.propertyRetention SegmentGraphTest SegmentIdFactoryTest.dataAIOOBE SegmentNodeStoreServiceTest SegmentSizeTest I disabled them for now until sorted out.
