Invalid URL transformation after version 1.4.7

[divyenduz]

Our API has endpoints like

<endpoint>/get_data/<slug>
Where slug = <sportname>%2f<title>
for eg. football%2fronaldo-scores-a-goal
%2f is html form of /

The library was working for us up to version 1.4.6. BUT after upgrading to version 1.4.7 the slug gets auto converted to
football/ronaldo-scores-a-goal

So, something got triggered in version 1.4.7 converting %2f to /
I am trying to figure out the same by reading the commits in tag 1.4.7
BTW this link is not working (https://github.com/loopj/android-async-http/commits1.4.7)

Also, we will need a API to disable this transformation. If that can't be done, I will need to maintain a fork of this project as a upstream.

As well, kudos for the good work.
Thanks

Version 1.4.7 changelog states, Fixed URL encoding feature, that was breaking whole URL, not just path and query parts, which is issue #691 and related commit b3e15c3

If you don't want the URL to be automatically encoded, and possibly fixed if it contains errors, call setURLEncodingEnabled(false) on AsyncHttpClient instance, see the source for reference:
