As far as I understood, CouchDB does not keep old revisions

Is this true?
That is correct. Not at the moment though :) The next release of CouchDB
will include a mechanism called "compaction" that will run
periodically and
prune out old revisions.
We suggest that you manage old revisions to a document that you want
to keep around in attachments to the latest revision.
