Is there a way to disable automatic redirect creation?

[momon]

I realize that this is part of the core functionality of the module but we've been working on a very complex migration that requires some pages to be live while others are being worked on still. The automatic redirect creation on alias changes is causing unwanted issues for us.

I was wondering if there was a setting to disable that behavior temporarily site-wide so we can keep it disable and manage redirects manually when needed instead of always having those redirects get created.

I tried playing around with disabling it from some templates but any alias changes even if the template is disabled is still creating the redirect.

Thanks!
