Description

According to http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-http-settings.html#The_Basics PUT requests made with the HTTP wagon will enable Expect-Continue support by default.

However testing shows that when no <httpConfiguration> is provided in settings.xml Expect-Continue support is not enabled by wagon-http for PUT requests.

Similarly, when an empty <httpConfiguration> section is provided in settings.xml, Expect-Continue support is not enabled by wagon-http for PUT requests.

Only when a <httpConfiguration> section like:

<put>
  <params>
    <property>
      <name>http.protocol.expect-continue</name>
      <value>%b,true</value>
    </property>
  </params>
</put>

is provided in settings.xml is Expect-Continue support enabled.
