Heroku handles SSL, and nginx sees only HTTP traffic.

I'm not hardcoding anything. Nginx is generating its own redirects. The

I've gone into the code precisely to find out how to do that, since the
documentation wasn't helping. I was surprised to discover that the
protocol seems to be hardcoded.

I don't have any redirects. Nginx is doing this on its own.
