Ankit Agarwal commented on SLING-5866:
--------------------------------------

[~bdelacretaz] I have checked the integration tests mentioned at [0] with my 
changes and number of test case failures are same in trunk branch and my patch. 
So it looks like attached pull request does not create any regression. 
Also I have updated mentioned changes for HeadServletResponses. 
Regarding test cases , As far as I can understand there no integration tests 
available for GET request as of now. So can we create a separate task for Test 
case of GET and HEAD requests and merge this patch for now ?

>             Project: Sling
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Servlets
>    Affects Versions: Servlets Get 2.1.14
>            Reporter: Ankit Agarwal
>
> As per current implementation any HEAD request will be handled by 
> defaultHeadServlet which majorly does two changes
> 1.) coverts response output stream to be null so that there should be no 
> message body in response
> 2.)  coverts HEAD request to GET request. 
> Now this request is dispatched and served by defaultGetServlet.
> With this approach, we get the desired output but response is delayed as it 
> reads the complete binary data of a resource. and also it increases data 
> transfer which is not needed.
> So IMO this approach should be improved.
> thanks,
