# `--verbose`
Make curl output verbose information during the operation. Useful for
debugging and seeing what's going on under the hood. A line starting with \>
means header data sent by curl, \< means header data received by curl that is
hidden in normal cases, and a line starting with * means additional info
provided by curl.
debugging and seeing what's going on under the hood. Verbose output lines are
prefixed with letters:
## >
header sent by curl
## <
header received by curl
## }
data sent by curl
## {
data received by curl
## *
additional info provided by curl. Text that adds explanations what goes on and
about choices curl does.

If you only want HTTP headers in the output, --show-headers or --dump-header
might be more suitable options.
