Here is my `urls.py`:

```
urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^polls/', include('polls.urls')),
    url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

```

If I type `127.0.0.1:8000/polls` in my browser (Firefox) I get redirected to `127.0.0.1:8000/polls/` (with slash at the end).

To be honest, I am confused why that is. Because in my `settings.py`there is no

```
APPEND_SLASH = True

```

However, the Django docs say:

> 
> APPEND\_SLASH
> 
> 
> Default: True
> 
> 
> When set to True, if the request URL does not match any of the
>  patterns in the URLconf and it doesn’t end in a slash, an HTTP
>  redirect is issued to the same URL with a slash appended. Note that
>  the redirect may cause any data submitted in a POST request to be
>  lost.
> 
> 
> 

Source: <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/settings/#append-slash>

Is it that APPEND\_SLASH is True by default even if it's not in `settings.py`? And that you should only put it in this file if you want to set it to False?
Or what's the reason for that behaviour?
