 ### `onShouldRetry: (err, retryAttempt, options, next) => next(err)`
 
 When an upload fails `onShouldRetry` is called with the error and the default retry logic as the second argument. The default retry logic is an [exponential backoff](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff) algorithm triggered on HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) errors. Meaning if your server (or proxy) returns HTTP 429 because it’s being overloaded, @uppy/tus will find the ideal sweet spot to keep uploading without overloading.
