-------------------------------------
Summary: Clean up _revision entries on commit root documents
Key: OAK-3711
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-3711
Project: Jackrabbit Oak
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: core, documentmk
Reporter: Marcel Reutegger
The _revisions entries on commit root documents are currently not cleaned up
and accumulate in split documents.
One possible solution may be to ensure that there are no uncommitted changes up
to certain revisions. Older revisions would then be considered valid and commit
information on the commit root document wouldn't be needed anymore.
For regular commits this is probably not that difficult. However, changes from
branch commits require the merge revision set in the commit entry on the commit
root to decide when those changes were made visible to other sessions. A simple
solution could be to rewrite such changes with the merge revision.
