Comment 13 for bug 981332

I agree with you, Mike.. was just trying to add some background information to the bug, that's all :)

As for Swift, Swift always uses chunked-transfer-encoding if there is a readable file-like object that is passed to put_object(). It will also include a Content-Length header if the content_length parameter is not None:
