Non-default entity revisions are migrated as default revision because EntityContentComplete does not allows creating forward (and non-default) revisions

Created on 1 March 2021, over 4 years ago

Problem/Motivation

Identified while working on Bean Migrate → :

The EntityContentComplete migration destination plugin blindly marks every migrated content entity revision as default revision. This is wrong, because a moderated entity might have forward (so not-yet-default or not-yet-published) revisions as well.

Proposed resolution

Check whether the row being migrated has a revision_default destination property.

If the property's value is FALSE, do not set default revision.
If the property is not set at all, or its value is NULL, or it has a value, mark the entity revision as default revision.

The Migrate Drupal Module was approved for removal in 📌 [Policy] Migrate Drupal and Migrate Drupal UI after Drupal 7 EOL Fixed .

This is Postponed. The status is set according to two policies. The Remove a core extension and move it to a contributed project → and the Extensions approved for removal → policies.

The deprecation work is in 📌 [12.x] [Meta] Tasks to remove Migrate Drupal module Postponed and the removal work in 📌 [12.x] [Meta] Tasks to remove Migrate Drupal module Postponed .

Migrate Drupal will not be moved to a contributed project. It will be removed from core after the Drupal 12.x branch is open.
