Hello, I got this error while using .follow() method.

_http_client.js:115
      throw new ERR_UNESCAPED_CHARACTERS('Request path');
      ^

My config:

osmosis
  .get(SOURCE_URL)
  .find('.newsSummaryItem')
  .set({
    title: '.newsTitle',
    date: '.newsDate',
    excerpt: '.newsSummary',
  })
  .follow('.readMore@href')
  .set({
    content: '.newsSummary',
  })
  .data(data => savedNews.push(data))
  .log(console.log)
  .error(console.log)
  .debug(console.log)
  .done(() => {
    fs.writeFile('news.json', JSON.stringify(savedNews, null, 4), (err) => {
      if (err) {
        console.log(err);
      } else {
        console.log(`Data saved to news.json file.\nNews count: ${savedNews.length}`);
      }
    });
  });

I think SOURCE_URL has unescaped characters, please paste it here.
