An interface for replicating files. Allows a producer to publish Revisions and consumers to check for updates. When a client needs to be updated, it is given a SessionToken through which it can obtain the files of that revision. After the client has finished obtaining all the files, it should release the given session, so that the files can be reclaimed if they are not needed anymore.

A client is always updated to the newest revision available. That is, if a client is on revision r1 and revisions r2 and r3 were published, then when the cllient will next check for update, it will receive r3.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
