# `--referer`
Set the referrer URL in the HTTP request. This can also be set with the
--header flag of course. When used with --location you can append `;auto`" to
the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL when it
follows a Location: header. The `;auto` string can be used alone, even if you
do not set an initial --referer.
