Kartik,
When I was doing updates to work items. i need to collect the "ETag" field from the headers and feed it back during the PUT.
i.e. Extract the ETag filed from the headers returned by the GET:
ETag=`grep ETag header.txt | sed -e 's/ETag: //' | sed -e 's/"//g'`
Then pass it has a value to the header "If-Match", you can add the following option tot he curl command line for the PUT.
-H "If-Match: $ETag
The ETag field contains the last modified date of the work item so the work item will only be updated if it wasn't updated between the GET and the PUT. You need to manage this in your script, i.e. if you get an error during the PUT you need to perform the GET and again the PUT to update the work item.
I hope this helps,
Simon
