###Purpose

Contains the ETag header value (from Section 14.19 of RFC 2616) as it would be returned by a GET without accept headers.

Value

entity-tag (defined in Section 3.11 of RFC2616)

###Protected

MUST be protected because this value is created and controlled by the server.

###COPY/MOVE behavior

This property value is dependent on the final state of the destination resource, not the value of the property on the source resource. Also note the considerations in Section 8.8.

###Description

The getetag property MUST be defined on any DAV-compliant resource that returns the Etag header. Refer to Section 3.11 of RFC 2616 for a complete definition of the semantics of an ETag, and to Section 8.6 for a discussion of ETags in WebDAV.

Note that an ETag MUST be quoted and MUST NOT contain any double quote characters itself, see RFC 7232, Section 2.3.
