+#### Disable retries for a given list of HTTP methods
+
+By default, the standard resilience handler is configured to make retries for all HTTP methods. For some applications, such behavior could be undesirable or even harmful. For example, if a POST request inserts a new record to a database, then making retries for such a request could lead to data duplication. If you need to disable retries for a given list of HTTP methods you can use the <xref:Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience.HttpRetryStrategyOptionsExtensions.DisableFor(Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience.HttpRetryStrategyOptions,System.Net.Http.HttpMethod[])> method:

+
+Alternatively, you can use the <xref:Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience.HttpRetryStrategyOptionsExtensions.DisableForUnsafeHttpMethods(Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience.HttpRetryStrategyOptions)> method, which disables retries for `POST`, `PATCH`, `PUT`, `DELETE`, and `CONNECT` requests. According to [RFC](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7231#section-4.2.1), these methods are considered unsafe; meaning their semantics are not read-only:

 ## Add standard hedging handler
 
 The standard hedging handler wraps the execution of the request with a standard hedging mechanism. Hedging retries slow requests in parallel.
