Title
Body
I am trying to download a tarball from GitHub using cURL , but it does not seem to be redirecting: $ curl --insecure https://github.com/pinard/Pymacs/tarball/v0.24-beta2 <html><body>You are being <a href="https://nodeload.github.com/pinard/Pymacs/tarball/v0.24-beta2">redirected</a>.</body></html> Note: wget works for me: $ wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/pinard/Pymacs/tarball/v0.24-beta2 However I want to use cURL because ultimately I want to untar it inline with something like: $ curl --insecure https://github.com/pinard/Pymacs/tarball/v0.24-beta2 | tar zx I found that the URL after redirecting turned out to be https://download.github.com/pinard-Pymacs-v0.24-beta1-0-gcebc80b.tar.gz , but I would like cURL to be smart enough to figure this out.
