> When uploading a file to the location of an existing file, the SlingFileUploadHandler removes the old node before creating the new one. That's sometimes necessary, for example in the cases where a typeHint is provided for the upload that differs from the type of the existing node, but it's not always required. The current behaviour prevents us maintaining a version history for uploaded resources.
> I'll attach a patch for this in a sec.
