Thanks for the link, I think it may be close to what I'm looking for...
Question: does this example actually simulate a checkout-checkin in that the
file 'put' is kept in the revision history - and only a delta of the changes
is stored --- or is actually just a simulation of delete-import in that the
new file is not tied to the previous one in the revision history and stored
in its entirety?
