> Support rev in PUT URL

> Key: COUCHDB-642
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-642
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HTTP Interface
> Environment: trunk 08 Feb 2010

> A DELETE request lets you append ?rev=xxxx to the URL. But this doesn't work
> with a PUT request; you have to put the _rev in the body instead (even though
> the _id is taken from the URL path)
> $ curl -X PUT -d "{}"
> http://brianadmin:[email protected]:5984/briantest/foo
> {"ok":true,"id":"foo","rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}
> $ curl -X PUT -d "{}"
> http://brianadmin:[email protected]:5984/briantest/foo?rev=1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d
> {"error":"conflict","reason":"Document update conflict."}
> $ curl -X PUT -d '{"_rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}'
> http://brianadmin:[email protected]:5984/briantest/foo
> {"ok":true,"id":"foo","rev":"2-7051cbe5c8faecd085a3fa619e6e6337"}
> Allowing ?rev in the URL would make PUT and DELETE more consistent, and would
> allow you to replace an existing JSON doc with another one without having to
> merge the _rev into it first.
