- Help: Retry request if transient problems occur
- Category: curl
- Example: --retry 7 $URL

- Multi: single
- ---
- If a transient error is returned when curl tries to perform a transfer, it
- retries this number of times before giving up. Setting the number to 0
- makes curl do no retries (which is the default). Transient error means either:
- a timeout, an FTP 4xx response code or an HTTP 408, 429, 500, 502, 503 or 504
- response code.
- When curl is about to retry a transfer, it first waits one second and then for
- all forthcoming retries it doubles the waiting time until it reaches 10
- minutes which then remains delay between the rest of the retries. By using
- --retry-delay you disable this exponential backoff algorithm. See also
- --retry-max-time to limit the total time allowed for retries.
- curl complies with the Retry-After: response header if one was present to know
- when to issue the next retry (added in 7.66.0).
