Gestinanna::POF::Repository manages a revision controlled data store
based on Gestinanna::POF::Alzabo, allowing revision-controlled
documents without requiring direct filesystem access.

This package uses CVS as its model but with some differences:

 o Objects may not be deleted

 o If a revision greater than the currently modified one already
   exists, a branch is forced (e.g., if saving a modification to
   revision 1.2 and revision 1.3 already exists, then a branch is
   forced, creating a revision similar to 1.2.1.1 (or the first
   available branch number under 1.2) )

 o This module does not track blame information -- blame tracking
   implementation is application-dependent

 o An object may have multiple attributes under revision control


This does require Gestinanna::POF 0.03, also released at the same
time as this package.



Changes for Gestinanna::POF:

ENHANCEMENTS:

- Added support for MLDBM::Sync to Gestinanna::POF::MLDBM.

- Added private (unpublished) tests for Gestinanna::POF::LDAP.
It should work with LDAP databases at least in read-only mode.

BUG FIXES:

- Gestinanna::POF::Alzabo had incorrect is_live call to see if
it should insert or update.  This was exposed by the
Gestinanna::POF::Repository package.
