glynnbird commented on issue #89: documentation for /db/_revs_limit URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-nano/issues/89#issuecomment-399915143 The `GET /db/_revs_limit` tells you how many document revision tombstones are retained by the database. Older document bodies are recovered by compacting the database periodically, but "tombstone" documents are retained to prevent deleted documents resurrecting themselves during replication. Compaction docs [here](http://docs.couchdb.org/en/2.1.1/maintenance/compaction.html?highlight=_revs_limit). There's no specific function call for this in Nano, but you can make a [custom request](https://github.com/apache/couchdb-nano#nanorequestopts-callback) if you wish.
