Doing so may force many running CI systems to update their container image. Don't do that. AFAIK --no-verbose just cancels out a prior --verbose and it's not same as --quiet. I.e. there are 3 different console output levels, --quiet, --no-verbose (the default), and --verbose. Try "curl --verbose example.org -Lo /dev/null", "curl example.org -Lo /dev/null", and "curl --silent example.org -Lo /dev/null" yourself. -- Xi Ruoyao <xry...@xry111.site> School of Aerospace Science and Technology, Xidian University
