[jira] [Commented] (OAK-304) Rename ContentSession.getCurrentRoot()

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-304?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13456851#comment-13456851 ] 

Marcel Reutegger commented on OAK-304:
--------------------------------------

While we are at it. Can we also clarify the JavaDoc and have it talk about consistency requirements/guarantees? The current MicroKernel implementation guarantee the latest root in a strict sense. But is this a requirement? Would it be OK for an implementation to provide eventual consistency here? That is, getLatestRoot() might not immediately return the latest root created by another session.

> Renaming the method would make it clear that the method is potentially expensive and the returned object reflects the head of the repository at the time the method is called.
