Impact
Description
Adds a new optional interface: CustomChangeChecksum, that you can implement on any CustomChange.
Will let you configure how the checksum for your specific change will be calculated, if you're not happy with the default.
See discussion in #5478
Closes #5478
Things to be aware of
As previously stated, introduces the
CustomChangeChecksum
interface which you can add to yourCustomChange
implementation, in order to calculate your own checksum for your change. This will be a non-breaking change since the interface is completely optional.The technical impact is that
CustomChangeWrapper
will look and see if the custom change implements the new interface, and then call thegenerateChecksum
from that specific interface. If not, use the default one (via AbstractChange)Things to worry about
