When calling an HTTP resource redirecting to a HTTPS one with a keepAlive agent. We get the following error:
```
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_PROTOCOL]: Protocol "https:" not supported. Expected "http:"

```
This can be tested here :
```
const http = require('http');
const https = require('https');
const axios = require('axios');
axios.get('http://www.photobox.fr', { httpAgent: http.Agent({ keepAlive:true }), httpsAgent: https.Agent({ keepAlive:true }) })
.then(response => {
console.log(response);
console.log(response.headers);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
```
Axios delegate the redirection to the follow-redirect package which accept an option `agents` for both http and https agent see : https://github.com/follow-redirects/follow-redirects#per-request-options
* Adding tests to show config.url mutation
Because config.url is modified while processing the request
when the baseURL is set,
it is impossible to perform a retry with the provided config object.
Ref #1628
* Fixing url combining without modifying config.url
As config.url is not modified anymore during the request processing.
The request can safely be retried after it failed with the provided
config.

Resolves#1158
This modifies http.js to uppercase the HTTP method, similar to xhr.js, before passing the request off to the transport. This causes follow-redirects to preserve the HTTP method when automatically making a request to the next URL.
* Adding support for no_proxy env variable
* Adds support for the no_proxy environment variable commonly available
with programs supporting the http_proxy/https_proxy environment
variables.
* Adds tests to test the no_proxy environment variable.
* Adding documentation for the proxy env variables
* Adds documentation to README.md for the supported, conventional
http_proxy, https_proxy, and no_proxy environment variables.
This allows users of axios inside `electron` to provide the [`net`](https://electron.atom.io/docs/api/net/) module as the http transport instead of using nodes http/https modules. This gives a whole bunch of things to Electron users including automatic proxy resolution.
* Adding a way to disable all proxy processing
When the proxy field in configuration is === false all proxy processing is
disabled. This specifically disable the 'http_proxy' environment variable
handling.
Fixes#635
Related to #434
* Change readme wording
