1 Long: post301 2 Help: Do not switch to GET after following a 301 3 Protocols: HTTP 4 See-also: post302 post303 location 5 Added: 7.17.1 6 Category: http post 7 --- 8 Tells curl to respect RFC 7231/6.4.2 and not convert POST requests into GET 9 requests when following a 301 redirection. The non-RFC behavior is ubiquitous 10 in web browsers, so curl does the conversion by default to maintain 11 consistency. However, a server may require a POST to remain a POST after such 12 a redirection. This option is meaningful only when using --location. 13
