Re: Bulk updates and eventual consistency

[Antony Blakey]

I am attempting to keep this: http://github.com/AntonyBlakey/couchdb/tree/transactional_bulk_docs 
 reasonably up-to-date with trunk. It provides transactional  
_bulk_docs if you add "fail_on_conflict": true to the top-level JSON  
body in the request. If fails with a 419 if there are any conflicts  
(and makes no db changes). The Conflict data is threaded back to the  
http response point with the intention of returning it as the response  
body, but I've not done that yet. Patch welcome.

The mod is designed to be easy to maintain wrt. trunk.
