The yarep API is currently undergoing a transition from the path-based 
methods to a node-based API. The old methods were deprecated in 
Repository.java, and I do not really recommend to use the Storage 
interface any longer. I'm sorry for the lacking documentation, the whole 
thing is a WIP.
The getRevisions() method does not have any contract, because its 
purpose was to show "any kind of information" about the revisions, 
merely for displaying it to the user. It was added with the idea of 
replacing it later by real versioning (see Node.java and Revision.java).
As for the other two methods, I have no idea about their contracts. 
Please feel free to define one.
