/**
* Allows implementors to control how certain exceptions should be handled.
*
* This interface is intended to be implemented for multi-master setups to control the behavior
* for handling exceptions that are thrown by a lower layer that handles the consensus and
* synchronization between different server nodes. E.g. if an operation fails because consensus for
* a Git update could not be achieved (e.g. due to slow responding server nodes) this interface can
* be used to retry the request instead of failing it immediately.
