Michael Dürig commented on OAK-638:
-----------------------------------
bq. It's not just about conflict resolution, but validation of application
imposed constraints.
Yes I included these in my loose definition. See the link I posted, this is
exactly about this. So I think we really talk about the same thing here.
bq. I should probably change the summary of this issue.
Or rather use a separate issue for tracking this. What you want to do is trying
out an alternative way for handling conflicting updates of any sort as the one
we currently implemented. I think there is a lot of value in this and tracking
it separately makes it easier to compare it with other approaches.

> The branch/merge features on the MicroKernel were initially introduced to
> stage changes of large commits. Currently oak-core creates a branch even for
> small changes like updating a property. I think this introduces quite some
> overhead for scenarios with highly concurrent updates. E.g. think of a
> twitter like application or a forum with comments. Well, basically user
> generated content. These update tend to be rather small (couple of nodes) but
> frequent and concurrent.
> Right now oak-core always does:
> - MK.branch()
> - MK.commit() to branch
> - MK.merge()
> For small commits, it ideally should do:
> - MK.commit() to trunk
