Busting cache with curl. I'm not sure how much gets cached by curl, but I have ran into several cases where I am looking for new content and I want to ensure the content is new and no chance of being cached.

This article suggests 3 different techniques.

``` bash
curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store' http://www.example.com
curl -H 'Pragma: no-cache' http://www.example.com
curl http://www.example.com/?xyzzyspoon
```
