Subject: net/http: set Content-Type header for HEAD as well
X-Git-Tag: go1.10beta1~469
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2ff75551030c7e54bd1cec3e88805d4ea3232276;p=gostls13.git

net/http: set Content-Type header for HEAD as well

In CL 50510, the Content-Type header started to be set in Redirect when
request method is GET. (Prior to that, it wasn't set at all, which is
what said CL was fixing.) However, according to HTTP specification,
the expected response for a HEAD request is identical to that of a
GET request, but without the response body.

This CL updates the behavior to set the Content-Type header for HEAD
method in addition to GET.

This actually allows a simpler implementation than before. This change
largely reverts CL 50510, and applies the simpler implementation.

Add a test for Content-Type header and body for GET, HEAD requests.

Updates CL 50510.
