+Enhancement: Add TUS global capability
+
+The TUS global capabilities from Reva are now exposed.
+
+The advertised max chunk size can be configured using the "--upload-max-chunk-size" CLI switch or "REVA_FRONTEND_UPLOAD_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE" environment variable.
+The advertised http method override can be configured using the "--upload-http-method-override" CLI switch or "REVA_FRONTEND_UPLOAD_HTTP_METHOD_OVERRIDE" environment variable.
