Description

CASSANDRA-2433 makes it so that nodetool repair will fail if a node participating to repair dies before completing his part of the repair. This handles most of the situation where repair was previously hanging, but repair can still hang if an unexpected error occurs during either the merkle tree creation (an on-disk corruption triggers an IOError say) or during streaming (though I'm not sure what could make streaming failed outside of 'one of the node died' (besides a bug)).
