All right, doc is done for the Contents API (except the archive endpoint which I never user). Let me know if there are changes to be made. |

Current Contents API requires to download the file (even with the "show" method, file content is returned up to 1Mb in size) just to check if it exists remotely.
Proposed changes adds a head(...) helper method to AbstractApi and leverages it to make a HEAD call to the "Get contents" endpoint of the API instead of a GET to avoid downloading file content.
