Description

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version go1.12.6 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you see instead?

In net/http/tranfers.go: https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/http/transfer.go#L254

        if t.ContentLength > 0 {
		return true
	}
	if t.ContentLength < 0 {
		return false
	}
	// Many servers expect a Content-Length for these methods
	if t.Method == "POST" || t.Method == "PUT" {
		return true
	}
	if t.ContentLength == 0 && isIdentity(t.TransferEncoding) {

Since we have already checked t.ContentLength > 0 and t.ContentLength < 0, the t.ContentLength == 0 in the fourth if branch looks useless.


In net/http/fs.go: https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/http/fs.go#L586

	if d.IsDir() {
		url := r.URL.Path
		if url[len(url)-1] != '/' {
			localRedirect(w, r, path.Base(url)+"/")
			return
		}
	}

	// use contents of index.html for directory, if present
	if d.IsDir() {
		index := strings.TrimSuffix(name, "/") + indexPage
		ff, err := fs.Open(index)
		if err == nil {
			defer ff.Close()
			dd, err := ff.Stat()
			if err == nil {
				name = index
				d = dd
				f = ff
			}
		}
	}

Maybe we could merge this two if d.IsDir() { into one.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
