Socket hang up error when using the delete method with stream API

[sindresorhus]

I'm honestly not sure. I didn't add that part. Probably some weird behavior with Node.js streams. Maybe @szmarczak remembers.

You need to pass {body: ''} as option. See: https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/blob/main/documentation/3-streams.md#new-requesturl-options-defaults

Oh wow. @sindresorhus Thank you so much for the quick response. That worked. Could you explain why I need to set the body to empty string explicitly if it's a delete method, please? I thought delete methods don't have body (usually).

[VanTigranyan]

I would assume if we don't pass a body, the library would set it to an empty string (if it's required). @szmarczak do you know why we need to do that instead? Thanks a lot in advance.
