[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-69) Allow selective retaining of older
revisions to a document
Allow selective retaining of older revisions to a document
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-69
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-69
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Database Core
Environment: All
Reporter: Jan Lehnardt
Priority: Minor
At the moment, compaction gets rid of all old revisions of a document. Also, replication also deals with the latest revision. It would be nice if it would be possible to specify a list of revisions to keep around that do not get compacted away and replicated.

As a note to anyone viewing this issue, please read:
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/DocumentRevisions
At the moment, document revisions are internal-use-only and are not designed for applications to make direct use of. To implement a fix for this issue the revision system would need to be redesigned to provide revisions intended for client use and manipulation.

------------------------------------------
An extension of this that might prove useful would be to have the ability to disable compaction completely for a given database. Using revisions for versioning could prove useful, but the fear that compaction is triggered accidentally might prevent its widespread use.
