Issue? Using via Apache, GET response headers do not include Content-MD5
I asked this question over on the user list, and got directed here.
This is certainly a minor issue, if it even is one.
My company has Subversion set up using Apache. If I use an HTTP GET on a
file, there is no Content-MD5 header in the response, even though using
the command-line cadaver client, I can do a "propget" request on the
file, and there is a md5-checksum property for that same resource. It
seems to me that if the data is available, SVN ought to provide it, but
maybe this is difficult to do?
Should I file an issue for this? Is this by design?
-Eric.

More like an 'enhancement'. :-)

Not in this regard. More just not taking advantage of all the details
of the spec that is there. I will check back with my co-workers to
understand the use-case more fully, and if he thinks it still relevant,
I'll file a bug.
Thanks for your feedback.

I don't think it's a deliberate thing, nor would it be hard to do.
But you haven't told us why we should bother. :). Are we violating
some spec?
