I was trying to automate some Pants updates and was looking to use this invocation to update the

pants

script itself:

curl --proto "=https" \
    --tlsv1.3 \
    --location \
    --verbose \
    --output ./pants \
    <https://pantsbuild.github.io/setup/pants>

However, when I run that, it appears that at some point in the flow, I get redirected to an

http

site:

Is this a known situation?

I don't think this is known, thank you for reporting! Could you please open a ticket at https://github.com/pantsbuild/setup

@hundreds-father-404 Done! https://github.com/pantsbuild/setup/issues/116

I think the thing you want to curl is

<https://static.pantsbuild.org/setup/pants>

. Does that work?

Still redirects through

<http://v1.pantsbuild.org/setup/pants>
