It turns out we were previously using a hack to override
new Client. This hack wasn't present in the upstream package, and the upstream wasn't willing to add it for us, so instead I added acreateHttpClientfunction to the services layer and made the framework use that instead of directly calling thehttp.fooglobal methods.See dart-lang/http#64 for the discussion about changing the http package itself.
We should be vigilant to not add any usage of the
http.fooglobal methods in the future. I'm not really sure how we can catch those; maybe a custom lint? cc @pq for ideas.
