return new RedirectResult() 与 return Redirect()

以下两个控制器 ActionResult 返回语句有什么区别：

return new RedirectResult("http://www.google.com", false);

and

return Redirect("http://www.google.com");

        public override void ExecuteResult(ControllerContext context)
        {
            if (context == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("context");
            }
            if (context.IsChildAction)
            {
                throw new InvalidOperationException(MvcResources.RedirectAction_CannotRedirectInChildAction);
            }

            string destinationUrl = UrlHelper.GenerateContentUrl(Url, context.HttpContext);
            context.Controller.TempData.Keep();

            if (Permanent)
            {
                context.HttpContext.Response.RedirectPermanent(destinationUrl, endResponse: false);
            }
            else
            {
                context.HttpContext.Response.Redirect(destinationUrl, endResponse: false);
            }
        }
    }
}

第二个参数决定是否响应是 302（临时）或 301 永久重定向 http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html。默认情况下，该值为false.

第二种方法已开启Controller这只是一种方便的方法。这种方法已经存在于 MVC 的多个版本中（至少可以追溯到 2 个版本），但是 IIRC，将永久部分添加到RedirectResult我认为已经出现在 MVC 4 中（我不记得在 MVC 3 中看到过它）。
