Hi Tim, Thanks for sharing this GitHub ticket and great to see the changes have been merged! We are still however seeing an issue with filenames with spaces in the title.
Here's an example of an item <https://scholar.google.ca/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=zAF9iOEAAAAJ&citation_for_view=zAF9iOEAAAAJ:UeHWp8X0CEIC> in Google Scholar, where the PDF no longer redirects to the respective DSpace repository (recently upgraded to 7.6.2). The items in question are bitstream URLs that have spaces in the file name, (appearing as %20.). Handles and other URLs, including bitstream links with no spaces in the file name, are redirecting correctly. Is there a way to configure how filenames are treated or any development on this specific redirect issue?
