Description
Yesterday the https://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.0/slug endpoint was responding with serialized body but today it's responding with json response.
Example:
that should respond with serialized https://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.0/woocommerce
{"name":"WooCommerce","slug":"woocommerce","version":"3.0.3","author":"<a href=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\">Automattic<\/a>","author_profile":"https:\/\/profiles.wordpress.org\/woothemes","contributors": ...
and that should respond with json:
https://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.0/woocommerce.json
In this moment both requests are encoded as json.
On the other hand the rest of endpoints still behaves correctly.
The changed behavior for plugins/info endpoint breaks some wp-cli requests like for example from plugin precache command https://github.com/runcommand/precache
Should be fixed now (r13080-dotorg - Specifically state the default format of /plugins/info is php, and not json)
