Retry for specific HTTP status?

[gsakkis]

I want to retry http request errors with status 500+ (but not 400-500), is this possible? The on parameter apparently accepts only exception type(s).

Don’t most HTTP libraries have a specific exception sub type for server errors? Otherwise this is a sub type of #63, I think?

[gsakkis]

httpx has just HTTPStatusError:

class HTTPStatusError(HTTPError):
    """
    The response had an error HTTP status of 4xx or 5xx.

Yes #63 would cover it. I could work on a PR if that's ok.

Sure, I've just updated https://github.com/hynek/stamina/blob/main/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md
