+Code Analysis
+
+Objective:
+The objective of the 'validate_url' function is to validate URLs for any command that requires a URL as an argument. It checks if the URL is valid using a basic check, urllib check, and local file check. If the URL fails any of the validation tests, it raises a ValueError.
+
+Inputs:
+- func: A callable function that takes in any number of arguments and returns any type of output.
+
+Flow:
+- The 'validate_url' function takes in a callable function as an argument.
+- It defines a wrapper function that takes in a URL and any number of arguments and keyword arguments.
+- The wrapper function first checks if the URL starts with "http://" or "https://". If not, it raises a ValueError with the message "Invalid URL format".
+- It then checks if the URL is valid using the 'is_valid_url' function. If not, it raises a ValueError with the message "Missing Scheme or Network location".
+- It then checks if the URL is a local file using the 'check_local_file_access' function. If it is, it raises a ValueError with the message "Access to local files is restricted".
+- If the URL passes all the validation tests, it sanitizes the URL using the 'sanitize_url' function and calls the original function with the sanitized URL and any other arguments and keyword arguments.
+- The wrapper function returns the result of the original function.
+
+Outputs:
+- The 'validate_url' function returns the wrapper function that takes in a URL and any number of arguments and keyword arguments and returns the result of the original function.
+
+Additional aspects:
+- The 'validate_url' function uses the 'functools.wraps' decorator to preserve the original function's metadata, such as its name, docstring, and annotations.
+- The 'validate_url' function uses the 'urlparse' function from the 'urllib.parse' module to parse the URL and extract its components.
+- The 'validate_url' function uses the 'urljoin' function from the 'requests.compat' module to join the sanitized URL components back into a URL string.
