[WHATEVER]. This way you can for example send a DELETE by doing "curl -X
DELETE [URL]".
It is thus pointless to do "curl -XGET [URL]" as GET would be used
anyway. In the same vein it is pointless to do "curl -X POST -d data
[URL]"... But you can make a fun and somewhat rare request that sends a
request-body in a GET request with something like "curl -X GET -d data
