title: Python requests: Anyway to download just the body of a get response?
body: <p>So I first use requests.head() to download the header. I do some validation(check the status code, check content-type) if that is good I download the body. However I use requests.get() to that, but using .get() not only downloads the body but also the header which I just downloaded. So I don't need to download the header twice, anyway I can download the body of a get response if the header looks good?</p>
