Add additional context to Action Settings Documentation
It would be great to get additional context for the "action settings" options.
Examples:
- For "replace", what is that actually doing? On http://socrata.github.io/datasync/resources/control-config.html#actions it says "DataSync will calculate the minimal set of changes required, updating the dataset accordingly" though explanations on other pages like http://socrata.github.io/datasync/guides/setup-standard-job.html and the app tool-tip do not say this.
- What are the pros, cons, and best practices for each option?
- How does each option affect metadata fields like viewLastModified and rowsUpdatedAt as well as the record level "System Fields" described at https://dev.socrata.com/docs/system-fields.html? Provide example details for common scenarios.
