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
- "FTP with CONNECT and slow server"
I believe this is not a problem these days.
- "FTP with NULs in URL parts"
The FTP protocol does not support them properly anyway.
- remove "FTP and empty path parts in the URL"
I don't think this has ever been reported as a real problem but was only
a hypothetical one.
- "Premature transfer end but healthy control channel"
This is not a bug, this is an optimization that *could* be performed but is
not an actual problem.
- "FTP without or slow 220 response"
Instead add to the documentation of the connect timeout that the
connection is considered complete at TCP/TLS/QUIC layer.
Closes#9979
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
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
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
regex whitelist for the files that don't need copyright headers.
Removed three (mostly usesless) README files from docs/
