Description (last modified by davidsarah)
As mentioned in #958, it is normally the responsibility of an HTTP client to follow redirects, but the CLI commands don't do so. This is because source:src/allmydata/scripts/common_http.py uses Python's httplib directly. Up to now this hasn't mattered because the CLI commands only make HTTP requests that will not redirect. However, if #958 is implemented then any request might redirect.
This is easy to fix, for example by using urllib2 as described here.
