I have a situation where I only want to know the latest version of a doc and I don't care about any older versions. I don't care about conflicts.
As far as I can tell there is no way to ignore conflicts in couch. So I have to read an old version, ignore everything but the version value, and then save my new version. Since this isn't atomic I have to check for a conflict and repeat it. I have to do this in a number of places in my code. I was just wondering if anyone knows of a more elegant way to do this. Has anyone else found a need for this?
