Michael Dürig commented on OAK-1056:
------------------------------------
I suggest we resolve this as won't fix and document it as a known issue. This
only occurs when working with {{KernelNodeStore}} implementations but not with
native {{NodeStore}} implementations.
> Transient changes contributed by commit hooks are kept in memory

> Key: OAK-1056
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-1056
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Michael Dürig
> Priority: Minor
>
> With the {{KernelNodeStore}}, transient changes contributed by commit hooks
> are currently kept in memory instead of being written ahead to the private
> branch. The reason for this is that we need to be able to undo such changes
> if a commit hook later in the process fails the commit. Doing this
> efficiently would need some support from the persistent layer. Either the
> ability for branching from a branch or the ability to roll back to a previous
> state.
> See the TODOs in {{KernelNodeState.builder()}}, which returns a
> MemoryNodeBuilder (instead of a KernelNodeBuilder when the current state is
> on a branch. This is the workaround to avoid branching form a branch and has
> the effect that commit hooks currently run against a MemoryNodeBuilder and
> limits the amount of changes commit hooks can add.
