The
getContent
method always returnsfalse
for instances ofBinaryFileResponse
orStreamedResponse
. Consequently, for any file served viareturn response()->download(...)
, the ETag header wil be set to the MD5 hash offalse
, which isd41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
.This leads to an identical ETag for all downloads, regardless of the actual file content. I propose that the ETag header be removed in cases where the content cannot be determined, as this would provide a more accurate response.
