Eh, the manual quite clearly describes them:

        CURLOPT_SOURCE_URL
               When set, it enables a FTP third party transfer, using the set
               URL as source, while CURLOPT_URL is the target.

If you don't need third party transfers, then don't use CURLOPT_SOURCE_URL.

If you don't know what "third party transfers" is, you clearly don't want
that...
