curl speaks etag
That’s a quote from the mozilla ETag documentation. The header is defined in RFC 7232.
In short, a server can include this header when it responds with a resource, and in subsequent requests when a client wants to get an updated version of that document it sends back the same ETag and says “please give me a new version if it doesn’t match this ETag anymore”. The server will then respond with a 304 if there’s nothing new to return.
It is a better way than modification time stamp to identify a specific resource version on the server.
