Bug (Maybe) cookies are duplicated on subsequent redirects

See original GitHub issue

I am not sure if this is a bug yet, trying to reproduce and write some tests, but cannot due to #227

But figured I’ll open an issue, just in case, maybe you can spot the error, if there is one.

Here is a sanitized request flow:

GET /url1 HTTP/1.1
Cookie: cookiename=111111;
Host: example.com


HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Location: https://example.com/url2


GET /url2 HTTP/1.1
Cookie: cookiename=111111; cookiename=111111;
Host: example.com


HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Location: /url3
Set-Cookie: cookiename=222222; Domain=example.com; Expires=Thu, 10-Nov-2039 23:46:26 GMT; Path=/


GET /url3 HTTP/1.1
Cookie: cookiename=111111; cookiename=111111; cookiename=222222;
Host: example.com

Notice that with each request the cookies get appended and they have duplicate names.

Hi, sorry about the trouble. By mistake I was sending the cookie header by using the axios headers option. Your plugin also adds the same cookie from the cookie jar. That is why it was duplicated.

You may close this issue.

Thanks for the quick response. Let me write a test (sample code) for this.
