[Feature Request] WATCH hash fields #421

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Use Case:

I have a hash with new fields being added frequently, but existing fields being 
updated infrequently. I would like to update an existing field in a 
transaction, and fail the transaction if another update occurs. If I WATCH
the hash key, then my transaction will fail frequently. I would like to WATCH
the field instead. 

The only workaround I can think of is to redundantly store the hash fields in 
simple key values, and watch these keys, but this is wasteful of memory.
