Clash: Could you add support URL redirect, please?

[mumeblossom]

URL redirect can be useful in a lot situations.

URL redirect works fine.

$ curl -v -L -s github.com
* Rebuilt URL to: github.com/

// TLDR

[mumeblossom]

sorry, I misunderstood the meaning of url redirect.
What I want to say maybe URL rewrite. Like rewrite google.cn to google.com.

@glin93 Can you provide some scenes about "URL rewrite"? I am not sure whether it is worth implementing.

[mumeblossom]

For example, yinxiang.com and evernote.com. If I want to use the app store version I can only use international account.

Another scene is that many applications choose service based on the system’s region setting. Like safari use google.cn as search engine 谷歌. If I don’t want to change my region but still need google.com service, rewrite will be very useful.

Above all URL rewrite may not be that important in most situations, but it do provide a convenient method for users to control the service as they wish.

比如 maps.google.cn 已经终止运作了
