Hello, There appear to exist use cases that intend to simply check for the existence of content in a debuginfod server, without actually downloading it. In HTTP land, the HEAD operation is the natural expression of this. Instead of implementing a HEAD/describe option, allow users, with enough verbosity, to print the HTTP response headers upon retrieving a file. E.g output: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Length: 2428240 Cache-Control: public Last-Modified: Sat, 15 May 2021 20:49:51 GMT Content-Type: application/octet-stream Date: Tue, 03 Aug 2021 18:50:36 GMT Note: the new test is mostly compatible with the nsanci/test-fix commit. When nsanci/test-fix merges with master I can resubmit the patch with the test properly rebased and adjusted for maximum efficiency. The HEAD functionality will (likely) be put into a new PR for existing checking. -Noah Sanci
