There's no built-in option to do that, but you can accomplish this a number of
ways through scripting. curl doesn't do recursive downloads, so during the
stage where you get the list of files to download, you can simply filter out
the 0-length ones and avoid transferring them. Or, you could just transfer them
anyway and delete the empty ones. Using HTTP, you could probably use an
If-Range: header to skip such files, but that really wouldn't save you any
network bandwidth or latency.
