Problem

This feature is disabled by default.

Suggest a fix

I heard this was enabled on 5.2 but did some poking around and I think it might have been enabled since 4.6.

I don't know C++ well, but the true here flipped from false in 4.6.0. https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/blob/scylla-4.6.0/db/config.cc#L766

Either way, in some version of Scylla this is now enabled by default.

@GarrettPoore Thanks for reporting this issue. You're right; the Repair Base Operation section on the Repair page is outdated. The one that should be used as it has updated information is the separate Repair Based Node Operations page. This bug will be fixed in version 5.3; you can review it on master.
