Description:

Hello there! When client name is set using client_setname, it doesn't persist after reconnection.

In [3]: r = redis.Redis.from_url("redis://redis/") In [4]: r.client_setname("test-name") Out[4]: True In [5]: r.client_getname() Out[5]: 'test-name' In [6]: r.connection_pool.disconnect() In [7]: r.client_getname()

I noticed that client name persists only if it's passed to the Redis object constructor, so it's set in ConnectionPool and correctly used for new connections:

In [8]: r = redis.Redis.from_url("redis://redis/", client_name="test-name") In [9]: r.client_getname() Out[9]: 'test-name' In [10]: r.connection_pool.disconnect() In [11]: r.client_getname() Out[11]: 'test-name'

Is it intended behavior? If yes, maybe there should be a warning about it in documentation, because it may lead to unexpected results e.g. during debugging of connection issues.
