Hi devs,
I’ve just realized (thanks to a failing functional test) that we’ve
changed the behavior we had when we restore a deleted document.
We used to add a revision with a comment text of "Restored from recycle
bin”.
After https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9960, there’s no new revision
created when restoring a deleted document.
We need to decide if that’s what we want.
Apart from the fact that it’s a minor backward-compatibility breakage (for
tools/scripts expecting that revision), the only downside I can see is that
by looking at a document history you won’t be able to get the full list of
what happened to this doc, i.e. that such user has restored the document.
WDYT?
"Alice has deleted this page" and "Bob has restored this page from recycle
bin" are *activity stream* events more than history entries (versions).
There's no need to be able to revert, compare or blame such a "version".
There may be other page actions like this too, that should appear in the
activity stream (for a page) but that don't necessarily generate a new
version in the history. So we could imagine having another "Activity
Stream" tab/viewer besides History, or a unified History viewer that shows
both activity stream events and page versions.
Personally I think this could be acceptable but I’m not sure.
Thanks
-Vincent
