Cannot background HTTPie http request with `&` in .sh script
How come this works from the BASH prompt:
/testproj> http http://localhost:5000/ping/ &
[1] 10733
(env)
/testproj> HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Content-Length: 2
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2018 19:27:01 GMT
Server: Werkzeug/0.14.1 Python/3.6.4
{}
... but fails when executed from in a .sh:
/testproj> cat x.sh
http http://localhost:5000/ping/ &
(env)
/testproj> ./x.sh
(env)
/testproj> HTTP/1.0 405 METHOD NOT ALLOWED

for whatever reason
