HttpSession can't handle HTTP 301 with Location: https,https://

[ns-cweber]

Given a webserver at https://some.service.com which returns HTTP 301 with a header Location: https,https://some.service.com/foo/bar/baz (no idea if this is a reasonable thing for a webserver to do, but I am seeing this on an internal service) when you attempt to access https://some.service.com/foo/bar/baz and an HttpSession with a base_url of https://some.service.com (e.g., the client property on a TaskSet), when I invoke post("/foo/bar/baz"), I get Cannot GET /foo/bar/https,https://some.service.com/foo/bar/baz. When I check the response.request.url, I see it is https://some.service.com/foo/bar/https,https://some.service.com/foo/bar/baz. If I hit the same service with requests, the redirect is handled correctly.

A couple of strange things here--the POST is being turned into a GET and the odd URL mangling/concatenation.

locustio version: 0.7.5
requests version: 2.14.1
python version: 2.7.13

Never mind. I further debugged this issue, and it looks like I was passing a subtly different URL to requests than to Locust. Requests does the same thing.
