Julian Sedding created OAK-2619: ----------------------------------- Summary: Support merging content during upgrade Key: OAK-2619 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2619 Project: Jackrabbit Oak Issue Type: New Feature Components: upgrade Affects Versions: 1.1.7 Reporter: Julian Sedding Priority: Minor
When upgrading from Jackrabbit 2 to Oak there are several scenarios that could benefit from the ability to merge content rather than overwrite it. Especially in combination with OAK-2586, i.e. support to include/exclude selected paths from the copy operation, merging can become very useful. # Start vanilla product with an empty repo that writes some initial content, then copy content from a Jackrabbit 2 repo into this instance # Unify content from several Jackrabbit 2 repositories into a single Oak repo # Copy all content 1 week before the actual migration, then merge in the diff on migration day -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
