In the log replication example, after healing the partition the uncommitted log changes in the minority group are rolled back and the leader's log is used.

However it's not clear how that log is transmitted. Until this point only heartbeats via append entry were discussed, so it's not clear if the followers pull that information from the leader somehow via a different mechanism, or whether it's the leader's responsibility to detect followers that are left behind and replay everything. That would seem rather error prone and a lot of coordination effort. So how's it actually done?
