Beschreibung
Title: Content-Encoding header is not added to HEAD responses.
Description:
Following header is not present in HEAD responses:
content-encoding: gzip
RFC7231 specifies the following:
The server SHOULD send the same header fields in response to a HEAD request as it would have sent if the request had been a GET, except that the payload header fields (Section 3.3) MAY be omitted.
(NB! Content-Encoding is not in the list of payload-specific headers.)
Therefore this may cause issues with clients that follow RFC and expect HEAD and GET headers to match.
