Martin Panter added the comment: Please explain what the wrong behaviour that you see is, and what you expect the right behaviour should be.
That code is intended to either keep any user-supplied Accept-Encoding header field, or send “Accept-Encoding: identity” if the field is not supplied. If you are looking for a way to avoid adding this field entirely, see the lower level putrequest() and related methods. This is documented behaviour: <https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/httplib.html#httplib.HTTPConnection.putrequest>. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter stage: -> test needed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29479> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
