Bug Description
in script.py:
The value of line here can contain % if the branch urls contain % (such as e.g. %7e) - this line is used in string formatting as the string to format later; either we should escape the urls appropriately, or we should (and this is probably better) pass the args to format further down, deferring any interpretation till the point of emission.
To post a comment you must log in.
This will show up as a 'silent failure' with a TypeError in the log. The workaround is to use url's without % in them (e.g. ~user).
