Thanks, I think it deserves a note in changelog.

Hi @T-256,
will the code change encode every "%" sent into uri as "%25" ?

Yes, if it is invalid percent-encoded.

Hello, could you look at if this PR fixes the cases of bad % character encoding that are raised in #3135?

I think the change in this PR (to only encode % if it would result in invalid percent-encoding) is a distraction from the real issue.

[tomchristie]

Thanks. I think this is superseeded by #3187.

[heysarthak]

I tried the same on http 0.27.0, still having the same issue.

[tomchristie]

Thanks everyone.
Remaining issues here should now all fully be addressed in #3371 and #3373.
