| 2 | Help: Do not switch to GET after following a 301 |
| 3 | Protocols: HTTP |
| 4 | See-also: post302 post303 location |

| 7 | Tells curl to respect RFC 7231/6.4.2 and not convert POST requests into GET |
| 8 | requests when following a 301 redirection. The non-RFC behaviour is ubiquitous |
| 9 | in web browsers, so curl does the conversion by default to maintain |
| 10 | consistency. However, a server may require a POST to remain a POST after such |
| 11 | a redirection. This option is meaningful only when using --location. |
