Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-1018:
--------------------------------------------

Minor nit on the layout of that case statement. I'd prefer something more like:

case couch_db:open_doc_revs(Db, DocId, [Rev], []) of
  {ok, [{ok, Doc0}]} -> Doc0;
  {ok, [{{not_found, missing}, Rev}]} -> throw(conflict);
  {ok, [Error]} -> throw(Error)
end

> When trying to attach a file to a document and specifying a nonexistent revision number, the HTTP response's status code is 500. This status code is plainly wrong, as there is definitely no Internal Server Error in that case.
> When trying to update a document body and specifying a nonexistent revision number, the HTTP response's status code is 409 (which is reasonable).
> Here, the resulting HTTP status codes should be consistent, i.e., independent of the fact whether a new version of the document body or an attachment is written.
