[Openstack] Question about undo delete in Swift with Object Version

2012-08-22 Thread ZHOU Yuan
Hi stackers,

I'm trying to understand the object version feature in Swift.
In the current implementation we can store multi-versions of the same
object in Swift. However when you delete it from the container, the
latest version is deleted and this is not recoverable, right?

Is there any magic to restore the deleted version? As I know, some
users want to keep the history versions, like svn.

With the current implementation of versioning in Swift, this isn't possible. 
It's better to think of the feature as versioned writes.

Hi John,

Thanks, versioned writes sounds really cool!
Do you have any plan on this now?
