# `--no-clobber`
|
|
|
|
When used in conjunction with the --output, --remote-header-name,
|
|
--remote-name, or --remote-name-all options, curl avoids overwriting files
|
|
that already exist. Instead, a dot and a number gets appended to the name of
|
|
the file that would be created, up to filename.100 after which it does not
|
|
create any file.
|
|
|
|
Note that this is the negated option name documented. You can thus use
|
|
--clobber to enforce the clobbering, even if --remote-header-name is
|
|
specified.
