<p>The If-None-Match HTTP request header makes the request conditional. For
GET and HEAD methods, the server will send back the requested resource,
with a 200 status, only if it doesnt have an ETag matching the given
ones. For other methods, the request will be processed only if the
eventually existing resources ETag doesnt match any of the values
listed.</p>
<p>When the condition fails for GET and HEAD methods, then the server must
return HTTP status code 304 (Not Modified). For methods that apply
server-side changes, the status code 412 (Precondition Failed) is used.
Note that the server generating a 304 response MUST generate any of the
following header fields that would have been sent in a 200 (OK) response
to the same request: Cache-Control, Content-Location, Date, ETag,
Expires, and Vary.</p>
<p>The comparison with the stored ETag uses the weak comparison algorithm,
meaning two files are considered identical not only if they are
identical byte to byte, but if the content is equivalent. For example,
two pages that would differ only by the date of generation in the footer
would be considered as identical.</p>
<p>When used in combination with If-Modified-Since, it has precedence (if
the server supports it).</p>
<p>There are two common use cases:</p>
<ul>
<li>For <code>GET</code> and <code>HEAD</code> methods, to update a cached entity that has an associated ETag.</li>
<li>For other methods, and in particular for <code>PUT</code>, <code>If-None-Match</code> used with
the <code>*</code> value can be used to save a file not known to exist,
guaranteeing that another upload didnt happen before, losing the data
of the previous put; this problems is the variation of the lost update
problem.</li>
</ul>
