--proto
Tells curl to limit what protocols it may use for transfers. 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 modifiers are:
+
Permit this protocol in addition to protocols already permitted (this is the default if no modifier is used).
-
Deny this protocol, removing it from the list of protocols already permitted.
=
Permit only this protocol (ignoring the list already permitted), though subject to later modification by subsequent entries in the comma separated list.
For example: --proto -ftps uses the default protocols, but disables ftps
--proto -all,https,+http only enables http and https
--proto =http,https also only enables http and https
Unknown and disabled protocols produce a warning. This allows scripts to safely rely on being able to disable potentially dangerous protocols, without relying upon support for that protocol being built into curl to avoid an error.
This option can be used multiple times, in which case the effect is the same as concatenating the protocols into one instance of the option.
