| For HTTP, Ignore the Content-Length header. This is particularly useful for |
| servers running Apache 1.x, which will report incorrect Content-Length for |
| files larger than 2 gigabytes. |
| |
| For FTP (since 7.46.0), skip the RETR command to figure out the size before |
| downloading a file. |
| |
| This option does not work for HTTP if libcurl was built to use hyper. |
