I believe that flushing files (instead of achieving the same behavior with streams) is a better choice in this particular context. The relevant bits of code in libsvn_fs_fs/revprops.c that are responsible for persisting revision property changes work with files, and we cannot do something with that. We can abstract certain parts of this logic with streams — e.g., when it comes to functions that serialize changes, because they do not really care if the destination is a file or a generic stream. However, an attempt to provide a proper abstraction for fsync() with streams is a step towards dynamic typing with a possibility of a runtime error like SVN_ERR_STREAM_NOT_SUPPORTED. I think that in this particular case using apr_file_t is better than forcing the usage of svn_stream_t just because we have been moving from files toward streams. We have a temporary file on the disk, and we need to fsync() it when we finished working with it. What could be more straightforward than calling svn_io_file_flush_to_disk() on the file right before svn_io_file_close()? I'd like to point out that we have an option of achieving the same behavior with streams, if we're aiming towards this. While this is probably a slight overkill, we could add svn_stream_flush() — inspired by design of the .NET system library [1,2] — to our API and provide the necessary flush handlers. This could be useful not just for files, but also for svn_stream_compressed() and maybe for flushing network buffers if we ever need to do so. I sketched this option in the attached patch. With this patch applied, we could rework the r1680819 fix like below. What do you think?
