From 5df04bfafd13b641786892de95bd5c1f87059f1d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Stenberg Date: Sat, 12 Oct 2013 23:26:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] curl: rename --bearer to --oauth2-bearer The option '--bearer' might be slightly ambiguous in name. It doesn't create any conflict that I am aware of at the moment, however, OAUTH v2 is not the only authentication mechanism which uses "bearer" tokens. Reported-by: Kyle L.
