Spring Cloud Openfeign spring.server.compression conflict with feign.compression

We can enable GZip compression in Spring Boot by

server.compression.enabled=true
server.compression.mime-types=text/xml,application/xml,application/json
server.compression.min-response-size=1024

We also can enable the request or response GZIP compression for ourFeign requests by

feign.compression.request.enabled=true
feign.compression.response.enabled=true
feign.compression.request.mime-types=text/xml,application/xml,application/json
feign.compression.request.min-request-size=1024

When we config server.compression.enabled=true in server-side and feign.compression.response.enabled=true at the same time. There will be something wrong: The server can handle the request as normal, but the client recieve wrong response.

There is an example in my github to reproduce the problem.

Reproduce problem steps: 1. Run the server application 2. Run the client application 3. HTTP GET from http://localhost:8002/client/get

Phenomenon: 1. Under normal circumstances, we will get the normal response, "String from server". 2. But when we config server.compression.enabled=true in server-side and feign.compression.response.enabled=true in client-side at the same time, we will get garbled, like ".)��KWH+��U(N-*K-".

The issue is same as https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-openfeign/issues/145, but I did not get answer in that issue, so I ask again.
