Would I have a reply-body if I am pushing? I think I understand this with a GET request, but I don't see how it applies to a PUT directive to the server.
You always have a reply body with a few exceptions (RFC 2616 4.3 Message Body). The length MAY be 0 if you do not want to inform the user about the result.
See RFC2616. It is actually a little unclear on this specific aspects of PUT but any 2xx response except for 204 should include a message describing the result to human beings. (also applies to 3xx responses except for 304).
c) The server must acknowledge the request to keep the connection persistent by answering with a (Proxy-)Connection: keep-alive header.
Where and how does the server acknowledge this?
In the response headers.
