| This transfers the specified local file to the remote URL. |
| |
| If there is no file part in the specified URL, curl appends the local file |
| name to the end of the URL before the operation starts. You must use a |
| trailing slash (/) on the last directory to prove to curl that there is no |
| file name or curl thinks that your last directory name is the remote file name |
| to use. |
| |
| When putting the local file name at the end of the URL, curl ignores what is |
| on the left side of any slash (/) or backslash (\\) used in the file name and |
| only appends what is on the right side of the rightmost such character. |
| |
| Use the file name "-" (a single dash) to use stdin instead of a given file. |
| Alternately, the file name "." (a single period) may be specified instead of |
| "-" to use stdin in non-blocking mode to allow reading server output while |
| stdin is being uploaded. |
| |
| If this option is used with a HTTP(S) URL, the PUT method is used. |
| |
| You can specify one --upload-file for each URL on the command line. Each |
| --upload-file + URL pair specifies what to upload and to where. curl also |
| supports "globbing" of the --upload-file argument, meaning that you can upload |
| multiple files to a single URL by using the same URL globbing style supported |
| in the URL. |
| |
| When uploading to an SMTP server: the uploaded data is assumed to be RFC 5322 |
| formatted. It has to feature the necessary set of headers and mail body |
| formatted correctly by the user as curl does not transcode nor encode it |
| further in any way. |
