Shouldn't this be done further down in order to use normalised headers?
Using this here would only catch the specific casing Content-Type and not content-type

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Probably yes, but this PR only brings back the removed code and adds an additional environment check to fix the regression bug. Axios headers helper is far away from perfection, and it should be deeply refactored to be really caseless, not just locally.
Unfortunately, the PR #4215 where the headers helper is reworked is still not merged, so it would be better to keep it as it was for a while.

Not sure why, but PR #3785 removed the code that deletes thecontent-typeheader in case of FormData payload for xhr adapter (browser build); This breaks the FormData support for the browser.Update: now it removes the
content-typeheader only for the standard browser environment. React native should keep the original header from the config.Closes #4631
