Description:
In practice, this means that node--BUNDLENAME resources (Node entities), block_content--BUNDLENAME resources (BlockContent entities) and media--BUNDLENAME resources (Media entities) will automatically have new revisions created when they're PATCHed, at least if the corresponding bundle (BUNDLENAME) has the "Create new revision" checkbox checked.
Technically speaking: this happens for entity types that have bundles, those bundles implement \Drupal\Core\Entity\RevisionableEntityBundleInterface and return TRUE for \Drupal\Core\Entity\RevisionableEntityBundleInterface::shouldCreateNewRevision(). So this isn't restricted to the three aforementioned entity types: any entity type that uses this infrastructure gets this automatically.
