[Feature] Show final URL if --follow-redirects is used

[JoshuaMart]

Hello,
It would be interesting I think to display the final URL when the --follow-redirects option is used.

For example if I use httpx on the domain google.com, there will be a redirection to https://www.google.com

As it is, if I use another tool behind it such as nuclei, the requests will not be made on the right URL

Thank's

Hi @JoshuaMart,

Thanks for opening an issue for this, what you suggested here will result in many unexpected behaviors in general and for nuclei as input as well, as with -follow-redirects the final URL could lead to hxxp://www.test.com/test/some_url which is not expected input for the nuclei and also unrelated URLs which is also not expected when you probing for subs for the target domain, closing this issue as no changes required here.

Reopening on the 2nd thought, this will be a useful addition to print the final URL as additional information when -follow-redirects is used.

And here is how it will look like in CLI and the same can be exposed in JSON as well.

echo apps.tesla.com | httpx -silent -follow-redirects

https://apps.tesla.com [https://mobile.tesla.com/appstore/account/username?ReturnUrl=%2Fappstore%2F]
