Also:

  1. HEAD key -> 404
  2. PUT key  -> 200
  3. GET key  -> 404 (what? But I just put it!)
This is commonly used for "upload file if it doesn't exist"

Even more confusing, the 404 on GET is caused by doing the HEAD when the object doesn't exist. Without the previous HEAD, the GET would usually succeed.
