curl

    1: Long: fail-early
    2: Help: Fail on first transfer error, do not continue
    3: Added: 7.52.0
    4: ---
    5: Fail and exit on the first detected transfer error.
    6: 
    7: When curl is used to do multiple transfers on the command line, it will
    8: attempt to operate on each given URL, one by one. By default, it will ignore
    9: errors if there are more URLs given and the last URL's success will determine
   10: the error code curl returns. So early failures will be "hidden" by subsequent
   11: successful transfers.
   12: 
   13: Using this option, curl will instead return an error on the first transfer
   14: that fails, independent of the amount of URLs that are given on the command
   15: line. This way, no transfer failures go undetected by scripts and similar.
   16: 
   17: This option is global and does not need to be specified for each use of --next.
   18: 
   19: This option does not imply --fail, which causes transfers to fail due to the
   20: server's HTTP status code. You can combine the two options, however note --fail
   21: is not global and is therefore contained by --next.
