tleyden opened a new issue #112: Write with Overwrite = true fails if doc 
doesn't exist
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-package-cloudant/issues/112
 
 
   If you do a write with `--param overwrite 'true' ` on a non-existent doc id:
   
   ```
   wsk action invoke cloudant/write --blocking --result --param overwrite 
'true' --param doc '{"foo": "bar", "_id": "nonexistent_docid"}'
   ```
   
   it gives an error:
   
   ```
           "stack": "Error: missing\n    at Request._callback 
(/nodejsAction/node_modules/cloudant-nano/lib/nano.js:247:15)\n    at 
Request.self.callback (/nodejsAction/node_modules/request/request.js:186:22)\n  
  at emitTwo (events.js:106:13)\n    at Request.emit (events.js:191:7)\n    at 
Request.<anonymous> (/nodejsAction/node_modules/request/request.js:1081:10)\n   
 at emitOne (events.js:96:13)\n    at Request.emit (events.js:188:7)\n    at 
IncomingMessage.<anonymous> 
(/nodejsAction/node_modules/request/request.js:1001:12)\n    at 
IncomingMessage.g (events.js:291:16)",
           "statusCode": 404
   ```
   
   But if I remove the `--param overwrite 'true'`, it works.  And then 
subsequent writes with `--param overwrite 'true'` succeed and update the 
revision.
   
   In this case, I think it's safe to ignore the 404 error trying to do the 
`GET` to fetch the existing revision, since it's expected that it might be the 
first revision, and no existing revisions exist.
