Public bug reported:

I use apt-cachet-ng to proxy apt repositories which are not official
Ubuntu or Debian packare repositories, such as the Percona tools repo
(http://repo.percona.com/tools/apt/dists/buster/). I tend to run into
problems when the InRelease file is updated on the server side, because
apt-cacher-ng doesn't seem to pick up on the change. Likely this is
because of an issue on said repository that the official distribution
repositories do not have, but I could work around the problem if I could
force apt-cacher-ng to re-download the file.

The way to do this would be to set a client header:

curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache'
http://192.168.33.1:3142/repo.percona.com/tools/apt/dists/buster/Release

It doesn't look like apt-cacher-ng obeys this header. I keep getting the
out of date version.
