List of warnings

• r2c-requests-no-auth-over-http: Alerts when auth param is possibly used over http://, which could expose credentials. See more documentation at https://checks.bento.dev/en/latest/flake8-requests/r2c-requests-no-auth-over-http/
• r2c-requests-use-scheme: Alerts when URLs passed to requests API methods dont have a URL scheme (e.g., https://), otherwise an exception will be thrown. See more documentation at https://checks.bento.dev/en/latest/flake8-requests/r2c-requests-use-scheme/
• r2c-requests-use-timeout: This check detects when a requests API method has been called without a timeout. requests will hang forever without a timeout; add a timeout to prevent this behavior.
