Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1968:
-----------------------------------------------
[~reschke] Julian, you just spent half a day disagreeing about something
completely unrelated to this issue. HttpClient _NEEDS_ to parse, decode and
disambiguate the URI in order to be able to rewrite it correctly. As per RFC
2396 URI normalization and equivalence are protocol scheme specific, so all
your references to the generic URI syntax here are pointless.

> Encoded forward slashes are not preserved when rewriting URI
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1968
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1968
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.5.7
> Reporter: Jay Modi
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: rewrite_preserve_forward_slash.diff
>
>
> URIs that contain an encoded forward slash (%2F) are no longer preserved when
> the HTTP client executes. I came across this when upgrading from 4.5.2 to
> 4.5.7 and my requests that contained an encoded forward slash suddenly
> started failing. The appears to be due to decoding and re-encoding of the
> path that takes place in the URIUtils#rewriteURI method. I've attached a
> patch that restores the old behavior but if a URI contains two slashes in a
> row in addition to an encoded slash the encoded forward slash will be decoded.
