 Description   

When a repository returns no content in the response (e.g. for status code 304), then dependency resolution fails with a NPE:

* What went wrong:
Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':p0:testCompile'.
> Could not download junit.jar (junit:junit:4.12)
   > Failed to download resource 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/junit/junit/4.12/junit-4.12.jar'.
      > java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)

There should be a better error message for this, even if it should never happen except if there is some problem on the repository side.
