The background of my original mail is indede the question whether we need the sha1 field in the content table. The current draft of the DB schema includes it.
That table will be tall, and the sha1 is the (on average) largest field. If we are going to use a different mechanism for tracking reverts soon, my hope was that we can do without it. OIn any case, my impression is that if we want to keep using hashes to detect reverts, we need to keep rev_sha1 - and to maintain is, we ALSO need content_sha1. -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
