/**
 * Allows plugins to contribute a value to the change ETag computation.
 *
 * <p>Plugins can affect the result of the get change / get change details REST endpoints by:
 *
 * <ul>
 *   <li>providing plugin defined attributes to {@link
 *       com.google.gerrit.extensions.common.ChangeInfo#plugins} (see {@link
 *       ChangeAttributeFactory})
 *   <li>implementing a {@link com.google.gerrit.server.rules.SubmitRule} which affects the
 *       computation of {@link com.google.gerrit.extensions.common.ChangeInfo#submittable}
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>If the plugin defined part of {@link com.google.gerrit.extensions.common.ChangeInfo} depends
 * on plugin specific data, callers that use the change ETags to avoid unneeded recomputations of
 * ChangeInfos may see outdated plugin attributes and/or outdated submittable information, because a
 * ChangeInfo is only reloaded if the change ETag changes.
 *
 * <p>By implementating this interface plugins can contribute to the change ETag computation and
 * thus ensure that the ETag changes when the plugin data was changed. This way it is ensured that
 * callers do not see outdated ChangeInfos.
 *
 * @see ChangeResource#getETag()
