- Fail and exit on the first detected transfer error.
- When curl is used to do multiple transfers on the command line, it attempts to
- operate on each given URL, one by one. By default, it ignores errors if there
- are more URLs given and the last URL's success determines the error code curl
- returns. So early failures are "hidden" by subsequent successful transfers.
- Using this option, curl instead returns an error on the first transfer that
- fails, independent of the amount of URLs that are given on the command
- line. This way, no transfer failures go undetected by scripts and similar.
- This option does not imply --fail, which causes transfers to fail due to the
- server's HTTP status code. You can combine the two options, however note --fail
- is not global and is therefore contained by --next.
