Hi All,

Fedora 33
curl-7.76.1-12.fc34.x86_64

This page show something different in Firefox and Vivaldi
that I can get with curl.

It's quite common for a web site to inspect the headers from the web client, digest what's in the header that's sent by the client which advertise what kind of content the client claims to understand, then send the appropriate content.

So the same URL can return completely different results to curl, and to a full-featured web browser.

Looking at eraseme.html, it look like I am only
downloading the left column and not the contents
on the right side of the page

Another possibility is that the web page consists of different frames, and a separate request is needed for each frame.

What am I doing wrong?

You're trying to reinvent the wheel. This a web interface to a plain, garden variety, git repository.

Forget curl. Use git.

And a little bit of scripting, or by picking the right options to "git show", to get just what you want. I'm too lazy to read git-show's man page, but there's probably a way to have it show just the commit message, and nothing else.

Anytime you want to recheck, just cd back to the same directory, do a "git pull", and see what you got.
