Michael Osipov commented on HTTPCLIENT-1952:
--------------------------------------------
My proposal would be to add {{HttpClientBuilder#disableDefaultUserAgent()}} and
test for that boolean in line 1045 where the default user agent is rertrieved
in the case where {{userAgentCopy}} is null.
> Allow default User Agent to be disabled

> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HttpCache
> Affects Versions: 4.5.6
> Reporter: Antony Bowesman
> Priority: Minor

> There is no way to disable the User-Agent header. In any kind of micro
> service architecture, where UA header is irrelevant, the header cannot be
> removed.
> This has been seen as an issue using JMeter, see link
