requests.exceptions.TooManyRedirects

[jarib]

Sometimes one of my feeds has a redirect bug and the script crashes:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/trackthenews", line 10, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/trackthenews/core.py", line 420, in main
    articles = parse_feed(outlet, url, delicate, redirects)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/trackthenews/core.py", line 188, in parse_feed
    article = Article(outlet, title, url, delicate, redirects)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/trackthenews/core.py", line 43, in __init__
    self.canonicalize_url()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/trackthenews/core.py", line 54, in canonicalize_url
    res = requests.head(self.url, allow_redirects=True, timeout=30)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/api.py", line 98, in head
    return request('head', url, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/api.py", line 58, in request
    return session.request(method=method, url=url, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 508, in request
    resp = self.send(prep, **send_kwargs)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 640, in send
    history = [resp for resp in gen] if allow_redirects else []
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 640, in <listcomp>
    history = [resp for resp in gen] if allow_redirects else []
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 140, in resolve_redirects
    raise TooManyRedirects('Exceeded %s redirects.' % self.max_redirects, response=resp)

It would be better if this error was reported but ignored.
