Previously, the curl and HTTPie request snippets always excluded the Host header, relying on the Host header that’s auto-generated by curl and HTTPie instead. This worked well for the most part, but meant that incorrect snippets were generated when the request was being sent with a custom host header that did not match the header that would be auto-generated. This commit updates CliOperationRequest to only filter out the Host header if it’s the same as the header that would be auto-generated by curl or HTTPie. Closes gh-258
Spring REST Docs 
Overview
The primary goal of this project is to make it easy to document RESTful services by combining content that's been hand-written using Asciidoctor with auto-generated examples produced with the Spring MVC Test framework. The result is intended to be an easy-to-read user guide, akin to GitHub's API documentation for example, rather than the fully automated, dense API documentation produced by tools like Swagger.
For a broader introduction see the Documenting RESTful APIs presentation. Both the slides and a video recording are available.
