1.1     ! misho       1: Long: retry
        !             2: Arg: <num>
        !             3: Added: 7.12.3
        !             4: Help: Retry request if transient problems occur
        !             5: ---
        !             6: If a transient error is returned when curl tries to perform a transfer, it
        !             7: will retry this number of times before giving up. Setting the number to 0
        !             8: makes curl do no retries (which is the default). Transient error means either:
        !             9: a timeout, an FTP 4xx response code or an HTTP 408 or 5xx response code.
        !            10: 
        !            11: When curl is about to retry a transfer, it will first wait one second and then
        !            12: for all forthcoming retries it will double the waiting time until it reaches
        !            13: 10 minutes which then will be the delay between the rest of the retries.  By
        !            14: using --retry-delay you disable this exponential backoff algorithm. See also
        !            15: --retry-max-time to limit the total time allowed for retries.
        !            16: 
        !            17: Since curl 7.66.0, curl will comply with the Retry-After: response header if
        !            18: one was present to know when to issue the next retry.
        !            19: 
        !            20: If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
