Description

Repeating an "_id" in a _bulk_docs post data file results in both entries being reported as document conflict errors. The first occurrence actual inserts into the database, and only the second occurrence should report a conflict.

curl -d '{ "docs": [

{"_id":"foo"}

,

{"_id","foo"}

] }' -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -X POST http://appadvice.cloudant.com/foo/_bulk_docs

[

{"id":"foo","error":"conflict","reason":"Document update conflict."}

,

{"id":"foo","error":"conflict","reason":"Document update conflict."}

]

But the database shows that one new document was actually inserted.

Only the second occurrence should report conflict. The first occurrence should report the "_rev" property of the newly inserted doc.
