18Limit what protocols to allow on redirects. Protocols denied by --proto are
19not overridden by this option. See --proto for how protocols are represented.

21Example, allow only HTTP and HTTPS on redirect:
22
23    curl --proto-redir -all,http,https http://example.com
24
25By default curl only allows HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS on redirects (added in
267.65.2). Specifying *all* or *+all* enables all protocols on redirects, which
27is not good for security.
