Story (A paragraph or two describing what happens)

A record of all changes to item should be retained in DSpace. Any time an update/commit happens to an ITem, a clear record of all the changes and a previous state of the item should be retained for repository managers to review. Repository Managers should be able to restore from any previous version replacing the contents of the current version with the previous state.

Identifiers should stay consistent for the resource, for example, handles and/or DOI may contain version history information, but a canonical handle or DOI should persist that represents all versions of the Item.
