No new features in dying branches. ---------------------------------------- Feature #3344: supporting rfc 5789 - http patch verb https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/3344#change-26394 Author: guilherme.silveira (Guilherme Silveira) Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: =begin I am sending a patch and Changelog file for trunk (should be the same patch for 1.8) supporting the PATCH verb defined on the approved RFC 5789. Here is the link for such RFC: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5789 Patch should be used to partially update resources over the web using a media type that gives enough information for such procedure. The patch adds a new PATCH class, similar to POST. It also defines a patch method to Net::HTTP instance. Finally, the code from post was refactored out into a send_entity method, because patch and post tunneling behavior are the same, with the only difference on which http method being used.
