-Tells curl to use the listed protocols for its initial retrieval. Protocols
-are evaluated left to right, are comma separated, and are each a protocol
-name or 'all', optionally prefixed by zero or more modifiers. Available

.IP "--proto-redir <protocols>"
-Tells curl to use the listed protocols on redirect. See --proto for how
-protocols are represented.
+Tells curl to limit what protocols it may use on redirect. Protocols denied by
+--proto are not overridden by this option. See \fI--proto\fP for how protocols

Example:
limit specific transfers to only be allowed to use a subset of protocols in
redirections.
+Protocols denied by \fICURLOPT_PROTOCOLS(3)\fP are not overridden by this
+option.

By default libcurl will allow all protocols on redirect except several disabled
for security reasons: Since 7.19.4 FILE and SCP are disabled, and since 7.40.0
SMB and SMBS are also disabled. \fICURLPROTO_ALL\fP enables all protocols on
