Summary: curl removes wrong file on error
Details: curl might remove the wrong file when `--no-clobber` is used together with `--remove-on-error`. The `--remove-on-error` option tells curl to remove the output file when it returns an error, and not leave a partial file behind. The `--no-clobber` option prevents curl from overwriting a file if it already exists, and instead appends a number to the name to create a new unused filename. If curl adds a number to not "clobber" the output and an error occurs during transfer, the remove on error logic would remove the *original* filename without the added number.
