title: Why does Rails defaults to SSL in development?
body: <p>This thread on github says that <a href="https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/5023" rel="nofollow">defaults for development not use ssl configuration</a> it still forces ssl even in development. Is there a way to avoid this? </p>
  
  <p>Im running Rails 4.0.0</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE</p>
  
  <p>Updated to Rails 4.0.2 - still always redirects to https in development for localhost:3000 and pow (.dev) url.</p>
