How do I pipe or redirect the output of curl -v?

Question

For some reason the output always gets printed to the terminal, regardless of whether I redirect it via 2> or > or |. Is there a way to get around this? Why is this happening?

Answer 1

The following worked for me:

Put your curl statement in a script named abc.sh

Now run:

sh abc.sh 1>stdout_output 2>stderr_output

You will get your curl's results in stdout_output and the progress info in stderr_output.
