public sealed class ConfigChange : IMessage<ConfigChange>, IEquatable<ConfigChange>, IDeepCloneable<ConfigChange>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Output generated from semantically comparing two versions of a service
configuration.
Includes detailed information about a field that have changed with
applicable advice about potential consequences for the change, such as
backwards-incompatibility.
Object hierarchy path to the change, with levels separated by a '.'
character. For repeated fields, an applicable unique identifier field is
used for the index (usually selector, name, or id). For maps, the term
'key' is used. If the field has no unique identifier, the numeric index
is used.
