12Tells curl to respect RFC 7231/6.4.2 and not convert POST requests into GET
13requests when following a 301 redirection. The non-RFC behavior is ubiquitous
14in web browsers, so curl does the conversion by default to maintain
15consistency. However, a server may require a POST to remain a POST after such
16a redirection. This option is meaningful only when using --location.
