| Help: Do not switch to GET after following a 301 | |

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