The documents that are stored in couchdb are versioned as long as you don't replicate/ don't compress the database. You can query for all the _revs of a document. You can make api calls to give you an older _rev of the document.

The _revs themselves follow a pattern that is semi-human readable.Like so:-

`1-some_uuid,2-some_uuid,3-some_uuid` and so on.

The versioning functionality is not comprehensive but you certainly have the building blocks.
