7.50.0 shipped on Jul 21 2016, over seven years ago. We no longer need
to specify version changes for earlier releases in the generated output.
This ups the limit from the previous 7.30.0 (Apr 12 2013)
This hides roughly 35 "added in" mentions.
Closes#11651
- removed some unnecessary blurb to focus
- moved up the more important URL details
- put "globbing" into its own subtitle and moved down a little
- mention the online man page in the version section
Closes#11638
We remove support for building curl with gskit.
- This is a niche TLS library, only running on some IBM systems
- no regular curl contributors use this backend
- no CI builds use or verify this backend
- gskit, or the curl adaption for it, lacks many modern TLS features
making it an inferior solution
- build breakages in this code take weeks or more to get detected
- fixing gskit code is mostly done "flying blind"
This removal has been advertized in DEPRECATED in Jan 2, 2023 and it has
been mentioned on the curl-library mailing list.
It could be brought back, this is not a ban. Given proper effort and
will, gskit support is welcome back into the curl TLS backend family.
Closes#11460
"Note that verbose output of curl activities and network traffic might
contain sensitive data, including user names, credentials or secret data
content. Be aware and be careful when sharing trace logs with others."
Closes#11596
- If the user set a legacy algorithm list (CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST) then
use the SCHANNEL_CRED legacy structure to pass the list to Schannel.
- If the user set both a legacy algorithm list and a TLS 1.3 cipher list
then abort.
Although MS doesn't document it, Schannel will not negotiate TLS 1.3
when SCHANNEL_CRED is used. That means setting a legacy algorithm list
limits the user to earlier versions of TLS.
Prior to this change, since 8beff435 (precedes 7.85.0), libcurl would
ignore legacy algorithms in Windows 10 1809 and later.

It can be used multiple times. Use %output{>>name} to append.
Add docs. Test 990 and 991 verify.

Closes#11416
Add support for command line variables. Set variables with --variable
name=content or --variable name@file (where "file" can be stdin if set
to a single dash (-)).
Variable content is expanded in option parameters using "{{name}}"
(without the quotes) if the option name is prefixed with
"--expand-". This gets the contents of the variable "name" inserted, or
a blank if the name does not exist as a variable. Insert "{{" verbatim
in the string by prefixing it with a backslash, like "\\{{".
Import an environment variable with --variable %name. It makes curl exit
with an error if the environment variable is not set. It can also rather
get a default value if the variable does not exist, using =content or
@file like shown above.
Example: get the USER environment variable into the URL:
--variable %USER
--expand-url = "https://example.com/api/{{USER}}/method"
When expanding variables, curl supports a set of functions that can make
the variable contents more convenient to use. It can trim leading and
trailing white space with "trim", output the contents as a JSON quoted
string with "json", URL encode it with "url" and base 64 encode it with
"b64". To apply functions to a variable expansion, add them colon
separated to the right side of the variable. They are then performed in
a left to right order.
Example: get the contents of a file called $HOME/.secret into a variable
called "fix". Make sure that the content is trimmed and percent-encoded
sent as POST data:
--variable %HOME=/home/default
--expand-variable fix@{{HOME}}/.secret
--expand-data "{{fix:trim:url}}"

Documented. Many new test cases.

I just thought of checking all the other files with .RE, and I found 6
other files that were missing .IP at the end.
Closes#11375
quote.d was missing a .IP at the end which caused the paragraphs
generated for See-also, Multi, and Example to not be indented correctly.
I also remove a redundant "This option can be used multiple times.", and
replaced .IP "item" with .TP .B "item" to make more clear which lines
are part of the list of commands and which aren't.
Closes#11371
- Implement AUTH=+LOGIN for CURLOPT_LOGIN_OPTIONS to prefer plaintext
LOGIN over SASL auth.
Prior to this change there was no method to be able to fall back to
LOGIN if an IMAP server advertises SASL capabilities. However, this may
be desirable for e.g. a misconfigured server.
Per: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5092.html#section-3.2
";AUTH=<enc-auth-type>" looks to be the correct way to specify what
authenication method to use, regardless of SASL or not.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/10041
- added and documented --trace-ids to prepend (after the timestamp)
the transfer and connection identifiers to each verbose log line
- format is [n-m] with `n` being the transfer id and `m` being the
connection id. In case there is not valid connection id, print 'x'.
- Log calls with a handle that has no transfer id yet, are written
without any ids.
Closes#11185
These are two boolean options to ask curl to use the native OS's CA
store when verifying TLS servers. For peers and for proxies
respectively.
They currently only have an effect for curl on Windows when built to use
OpenSSL for TLS.
Closes#11049
Output specific components from the used URL. The following variables
are added for this purpose:
url.scheme, url.user, url.password, url.options, url.host, url.port,
url.path, url.query, url.fragment, url.zoneid
Add the following for outputting parts of the "effective URL":
urle.scheme, urle.user, urle.password, urle.options, urle.host, urle.port,
urle.path, urle.query, urle.fragment, urle.zoneid
Added test 423 and 424 to verify.
