[jira] [Created] (OAK-3381) Provide Common Ancestor To ConflictHandler

Dominique Jäggi created OAK-3381:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide Common Ancestor To ConflictHandler
                 Key: OAK-3381
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-3381
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 1.3.5
            Reporter: Dominique Jäggi


currently _ConflictHandler_s are provided _ours_ and _theirs_, reflecting a memory state and persisted state of changes to the same root resulting in a conflict.

unfortunately the information provided to _ConflictHandlers_ does not include the common ancestor, needed for meaningful change-change merges (three-way merge).

the core should be enhanced to provide such information to _ConflictHandlers_.
