The value of the `ETag` header specifies some identifier for the particular content that the server is sending (e.g., a hash). When a client makes a second request for the same resource, it sends that value back in an `If-None-Match` header. If the ETag value is unchanged, then the server does not need to resend the content. -As of NixOS 19.09, the nginx package in Nixpkgs is patched such that when nginx serves a file out of `/nix/store`, the hash in the store path is used as the `ETag` header in the HTTP response, thus providing proper caching functionality.

With NixOS 24.05 and later, the `ETag` additionally includes the response content length, to ensure files served with static compression do not share `ETag`s with their uncompressed version. This `ETag` functionality is enabled automatically; you do not need to do modify any configuration to get this behavior. |
