+Long: get
+Short: G
+Help: Put the post data in the URL and use GET
+---
+When used, this option will make all data specified with --data, --data-binary
+or --data-urlencode to be used in an HTTP GET request instead of the POST
+request that otherwise would be used. The data will be appended to the URL
+with a '?' separator.
+
+If used in combination with --head, the POST data will instead be appended to
+the URL with a HEAD request.
+
+If this option is used several times, only the first one is used. This is
+because undoing a GET doesn't make sense, but you should then instead enforce
+the alternative method you prefer.
