Adam Kocoloski reassigned COUCHDB-419:
--------------------------------------
Assignee: Adam Kocoloski
> Replication HTTP requests lack User-Agent and Accept headers
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-419
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-419
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Database Core
> Reporter: Henri Bergius
> Assignee: Adam Kocoloski
>
> Currently when making replication HTTP requests to a remote CouchDB instance,
> CouchDB makes the HTTP requests "anonymously", without providing any
> information that it is a CouchDB instance and that it wants to receive JSON.
> Examples of what this could be:
> User-Agent: CouchDB/0.9.0
> Accept: application/json
> See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html
> It would be good to add these headers to HTTP requests made by CouchDB, as it
> makes it easier for other systems like Midgard to support the replication
> protocol:
