Expose the executable bit into a HTTP header #2

Closed zimbatm closed 8 months ago

zimbatm commented 5 years ago

The NAR archive doesn't store any file attributes except the file type, and whenever the file is an executable.

It would be nice to expose whenever a file is executable in a HTTP header.

Eg:

X-Nar-Executable: true

?

I've implemented a header named NAR-Executable.

I decided against the X- prefix as its discouraged since RFC6648.
