- Maximum time in seconds that you allow each transfer to take. This is useful
- for preventing your batch jobs from hanging for hours due to slow networks or
- links going down. This option accepts decimal values (added in 7.32.0).
- If you enable retrying the transfer (--retry) then the maximum time counter is
- reset each time the transfer is retried. You can use --retry-max-time to limit
- the retry time.
- The decimal value needs to provided using a dot (.) as decimal separator - not
- the local version even if it might be using another separator.
