Version Inventory and Inventory Digest

most recent version. Every inventory file MUST have a corresponding Inventory Digest.

+

+ In the case that prior version directories include an inventory file there will be multiple inventory + files describing prior versions within the OCFL Object. Each version block in each prior inventory file + MUST represent the same object state as the corresponding version block in the current inventory file. + Additionally, the values of the created, message and user keys in + each version block in each prior inventory file SHOULD have the same values as the corresponding keys in + the corresponding version block in the current inventory file. +

Non-normative note: Storing an inventory for every version provides redundancy for this critical information in a way that is compatible with storage strategies that have immutable version directories.
