There was a problem hiding this comment.
Please use an option e.g. WithAcceptCompression() so the caller may specify compression should be enabled, rather than "hard-coding" index.yaml.

What this PR does / why we need it:
As index.yaml can become big, sending it uncompressed over network becomes a problem.
Fortunately web servers offer compression of content on the fly.
http client must come with proper headers and then server responds accordingly if it supports it.
How it works
client -> "Accept-Encoding: gzip"
server -> "Content-Encoding: gzip"
server -> gzipped content
Special notes for your reviewer:
this solution is completely transparent. it will work only when web server supports it.
it is added only in case of reaching for index.yaml. otherwise httpClient works as before.
