Type description when using federation

[cosmincatalin]

Let's say we have a subgraph A that defines a type Customer for which it has added a description.
There's also another subgraph B that extends the Customer type in subgraph A, but the description for it is different.

When Hive composes the supergraph schema, what desciption will it be used for type Custome. Does the order in which subgraph are being composed into the supergraph matters?

The order of the subgraphs is relevant here and the first appearance of the description "wins". This is suboptimal, but is how the current federation implementation work.

In the future we could customise the behaviour through GraphQL directives.
