+
+By default curl 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. Specifying \fIall\fP or \fI+all\fP enables all
+protocols on redirect, including those disabled for security.
