* A new document will replace the matched docs
* The available modifiers are `$set` to change a field's value and `$inc` to increment a field's value. The modifiers create the fields they need to modify if they don't exist, and you can apply them to subdocs (see examples below)

* `options` is an object with two possible parameters
