Re: [Exist-open] versioning

[Wolfgang M. <wol...@ex...>]

Hi,

for a simple document history, you can use trigger class 
org.exist.collections.triggers.HistoryTrigger. It stores a copy of the 
document into the /db/history collection whenever you update or remove a 
doc. I used this, for example, on a server which is updated by several 
people via WebDAV.

I'm not sure if a real versioning mechanism should be in the scope of 
eXist. There are dedicated versioning tools like svn, which do the job 
quite well. And it should be possible to interface them with eXist in 
some way.

But I won't object if someone wants to further explore XML versioning ...
