    💥 Breaking Changes

    • ⬆️ hyper has been upgraded to 0.11, so header, StatusCode, and Method have breaking changes.
    • mime has been ugpraded to 0.3, with a very different API.
    • 🔧 All configuration methods have been removed from the Client, and moved to the ClientBuilder.
    • 🚚 The HttpVersion type was completely removed.
    • Error::cause() now returns Error::get_ref().cause().
    • 📜 All methods on Client that start a RequestBuilder now return a Result immediately, instead of delaying the URL parse error for later.
    • 🏗 The RequestBuilder methods all take &mut self, instead of moving the builder, and return &mut Self. (This shouldn't actually affect most people who are building a request in a single chain.)
    • Response::status() returns a StatusCode instead of &StatusCode.
