No such luck in my case. wget does indeed retry, but with the exact same URI handling. The reason the second try succeeded in my earlier example is that GitHub happened to return a new URL without a %2B in it. Sometimes that does not occur, and wget gives up after --max-redirect retries. For example, search for "Fetching openslidejava" in this log file: https://buildbot.openslide.org/builders/wintest-winsrv2012r2-amd64-32/builds/9/steps/fetch-deps/logs/stdio --Benjamin Gilbert
