Makes curl verbose during the operation. Useful for debugging and seeing
what's going on "under the hood". A line starting with '>' means "header data"
sent by curl, '<' means "header data" received by curl that is hidden in
normal cases, and a line starting with '*' means additional info provided by
curl.
If you only want HTTP headers in the output, --include or --dump-header might
be more suitable options.
If you think this option still does not give you enough details, consider using
--trace or --trace-ascii instead.
