Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node_serialized2x.patch (664 bytes)

node_save() saves a node, then calls insert or update hooks. These hooks
may run functions that, in turn, call node_save().


This all works fine except that if a revision is being created, the
revision gets serialized twice -- once on the original node_save() call
and once on the callback's node_save() call.


The attached two-line patch simply inserts a boolean variable called
rev_serialized to keep track of whether the serialization has already
been done.


I'd like to see cvs and 4.6 patched.


This patch is necessary so I can release actions and workflow for 4.6.


Background: http://drupal.org/node/24326

I don't like this patch.  It's a hairy fix.  There must be a better way
to avoid recursion in first place.

gosh, this a two line change with zero performanhce impact. seems like a
useful and minimally invasive fix for our current dilemma. we'll remove
it once a better fix comes around. is a shame to hold back
workflow/actions for such a minor issue. any others want to comment or
suggest a different solution?/

If there would be a little comment why this is needed, then I'd +1 it
heartily.
