Requires a supported filesystem, i.e. NTFS. Example: ```console > curl.exe https://curl.se/index.html --output test.txt --xattr --referer https://curl.se/ > cat < test.txt:Zone.Identifier [ZoneTransfer] HostUrl=https://curl.se/index.html ReferrerUrl=https://curl.se/ ``` Where newlines are CLRF, `ReferrerUrl` is set when using `--referer` option. Also: - test688: make it test `--referer`. - document `user.xdg.referrer.url` in `--xattr` man page.

# `--xattr`
|
|
|
|
Store metadata in the extended file attributes.
|
|
|
|
When saving output to a file, tell curl to store file metadata in extended
|
|
file attributes. Currently, `curl` is stored in the `creator` attribute,
|
|
the URL is stored in the `xdg.origin.url` attribute, for HTTP, the content
|
|
type is stored in the `mime_type` attribute, and if set, the referrer URL in
|
|
`user.xdg.referrer.url`. If the file system does not support extended
|
|
attributes, a warning is issued.
|
|
|
|
Since curl 8.22.0 this option is also supported on Windows, where it creates
|
|
an Alternate Data Stream named `Zone.Identifier`. It contains an INI formatted
|
|
`ZoneTransfer` section, with values: `HostUrl`, `ReferrerUrl` (if set).
