----------------------------------

             Summary: Check for outdated journal at startup
                 Key: OAK-7234
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-7234
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: segment-tar
            Reporter: Michael Dürig


To prevent accidentally branching the repository when the {{journal.log}} 
became outdated (e.g. OAK-3702) we could add an additional safety feature which 
would prevent the repository from starting in such cases. There's a couple of 
concerns to address:
 * What kind of tooling / guidance do we need to provide to recover should such 
a situation be detected?
 * How do we detect the {{journal.log}} being outdated?
 * How do we prevent false positives?
 * How do we deal with situation where the {{journal.log}} modifications are 
intended (e.g. by tools, of manual interventions)?
