- remove the version numbers
- simplify the texts
The date and version number will be put there for releases when maketgz
runs the updatemanpages.pl script.
Closes#11029
- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
Make all libcurl related options use .nf (no fill) for the SYNOPSIS
section - for consistent look. roffit then renders that section using
<pre> (monospace font) in html for the website.
Extended manpage-syntax (test 1173) with a basic check for it.
Closes#8062
- avoid writing "set ..." or "enable/disable ..." or "specify ..."
*All* options for curl_easy_setopt() are about setting or enabling
things and most of the existing options didn't use that way of
description.
- start with lowercase letter, unless abbreviation. For consistency.
- Some additional touch-ups
Closes#7688
In every libcurl option man page there are now 8 mandatory sections that
must use the right name in the correct order and test 1173 verifies
this. Only 14 man pages needed adjustments.
The sections and the order is as follows:
- NAME
- SYNOPSIS
- DESCRIPTION
- PROTOCOLS
- EXAMPLE
- AVAILABILITY
- RETURN VALUE
- SEE ALSO

Closes#7656
Since HTTPS is "the new normal", this update changes a lot of man page
examples to use https://example.com instead of the previous "http://..."
Closes#5969
This adds the CURLOPT_TRAILERDATA and CURLOPT_TRAILERFUNCTION
options that allow a callback based approach to sending trailing headers
with chunked transfers.
The test server (sws) was updated to take into account the detection of the
end of transfer in the case of trailing headers presence.
Test 1591 checks that trailing headers can be sent using libcurl.
Closes#3350
