libcurl can limit to what protocols it will automatically follow. The accepted
protocols are set with \fICURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS(3)\fP and it excludes the
FILE protocol by default.
-
-For users who think the existing location following is too naive, too simple
-or just lacks features, it is very easy to instead implement your own redirect
-follow logic with the use of \fIcurl_easy_getinfo(3)\fP's
-\fICURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL\fP option instead of using
-\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP.
