+Sends a chunk of the body. This method can be called multiple times. If no
+`Content-Length` is set, data will automatically be encoded in HTTP Chunked
+transfer encoding, so that server knows when the data ends. The
+`Transfer-Encoding: chunked` header is added. Calling [`request.end()`][]
+is necessary to finish sending the request.
 
 The `encoding` argument is optional and only applies when `chunk` is a string.
 Defaults to `'utf8'`.
