What's the question or action item to/for me? Thanks.
I'm afraid I don't fully understand your question. As you
probably remember, the change is blocked by your veto. To my
knowledge, this veto hasn't been revoked as of now, and I simply
mentioned that in my email. It is entirely your decision
whether or not to take any action regarding this matter.
So AIUI, Evgeny is asking you to withdraw your veto, Daniel.
Evgeny would like to merge this into trunk -- on the grounds, I
believe, that it is strictly an improvement over what we have now,
and it opens the door to further future improvements (each of
which would go through the usual discussion & consensus process,
of course).
Evgeny's work is on this branch...
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/branches/pristine-checksum-salt
...which in turn branched from
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/branches/pristine-checksum-kind.
I used this command to get an overview of the work:
$ svn cat
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/branches/pristine-checksum-salt/BRANCH-README
(The work is several months old now, but for the sake of
discussion let's assume it's mergeable, passes all tests, etc.
Obviously, Evgeny's only going to merge it when all of those
conditions are true -- maybe some minor tweaks will be needed to
get it there, I don't know.)
Best regards,
