Another way to do it would be to only handle "If-None-Match" if the content is already cached and then parse the Etag header from the cached content. I think it comes back to what Lars wrote in the commit that added the current level of Etag support (commit 488a214): Todo: add support for HEAD requests... If we have sufficient infrastructure to handle HEAD requests then it should be trivial to add proper Etag handling on top, but I don't think it's trivial to add that. > 2014-08-12 6:00 GMT-03:00 John Keeping : > > On Mon, Aug 11, 2014 at 07:45:53PM -0300, Dami?n Nohales wrote: > >> (Sorry, I forgot to include the list address in my response.) > >> > >> This does not interact with CGit's cache at all, this interacts with > >> client side cache. > >> > >> If the client sends an Etag it means "Hey, I have the content cached > >> for this URL in the client and its Etag is abc123", so, for a given > >> URL, if server calculates the Etag and results to the same as the Etag > >> sent by client, it means "Ok, client has the same Etag than me, so > >> client's cached content is up-to-date". > >> > >> The Etag is calculated from the requested object hash.
