Add the ability to embed a CA bundle into the curl binary. It is used
when no other runtime or build-time option set one.
This helps curl-for-win macOS and Linux builds to run standalone, and
also helps Windows builds to avoid picking up the CA bundle from an
arbitrary (possibly world-writable) location (though this behaviour is
not currently disablable).
Usage:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- autotools: `--with-ca-embed=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- Makefile.mk: `CURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
Also add new command-line option `--dump-ca-embed` to dump the embedded
CA bundle to standard output.
Closes#14059
- shows how to pass on local variables (better)
- start the transfers nicer (with curl_multi_socket_action)
- consistent and helpful function naming - to better show what functions
and callbacks that are used for what
- build warning-free with gcc -W -Wall -pedantic
Closes#14287
Because it is no longer needed to be done by a person as the dmaketgz
script does it by itself.
Removed two past release dates, added two new future ones
Closes#14267
- make DEFAULT sections less repetitive
- make historic mentions use HISTORY
- generate the protocols section on `# %PROTOCOLS%` instead of guessing
where to put it
- generate the availability section on `# %AVAILABILITY%` instead of
guessing where to put it
- make the protocols section more verbose
Closes#14227
- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent
wording
- allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions
etc)
- enables proper automation/scripting based on this data
- lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages
- several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info
Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against
symbols-in-versions.
Closes#14217
The man pages for curl_easy_getinfo, curl_easy_setopt and
curl_multi_setopt now feature the lists of options alphabetically
sorted. Test 1139 verify that they are.
The curl_multi_setopt page also got brief explanations of the listed
options.
Closes#14156
Simplify making clean builds by silencing deprecation warnings inside
the example code where these may occur.
Drop related build tweaks/comments from GHA jobs.
Example warning:
```
curl/docs/examples/postit2-formadd.c:65:16: error: 'CURLFORM_COPYNAME' is deprecated: since 7.56.0. Use curl_mime_name() [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
65 | CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "sendfile",
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```

Option cleanups:
--get is not upload
--form* are post
- added several options into ldap, smtp, imap and pop3
- shortened the category descriptions in the list
category curl fixes:
--create-dirs removed from 'curl'
--ftp-create-dirs removed from 'curl'
--netrc moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--netrc-file moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--netrc-optional moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--no-buffer moved to 'output' from 'curl'
--no-clobber removed from 'curl'
--output removed from 'curl'
--output-dir removed from 'curl'
--remove-on-error removed from 'curl'
Add a "global" category:
- Made all "global" options set this category
Add a "deprecated" category:
- Moved the deprecated options to it (maybe they should not be in any
category long term)
Add a 'timeout' category
- Put a number of appropriate options in it
Add an 'ldap' category
- Put the LDAP related option in there
Remove categories "ECH" and "ipfs"
- They should not be categories. Had only one single option each.
Remove category "misc"
- It should not be a category as it is impossible to know when to browse
it.
--use-ascii moved to ftp and output
--xattr moved to output
--service-name moved to auth
Managen fixes:
- errors if an option is given a category name that is not already setup
for in code
- verifies that options set `scope: global` also is put in category
`global´
Closes#14101
Also mention in HTTP3.md
OpenSSL has a bug that messes the config `--libdir=path` to become the
wrong path in its pkgconfig files. If we just pass `--libdir=lib` it
should avoid this.
Ref: #14099

- Add --output, --remove-on-error, --output-dir and --created-dirs to
the output help category
- Add --hostpubmd5, --hostpubsha256, --insecure (-k), and --pubkey to
the ssh help category
Closes#14076
GnuTLS todo item about using an equivalent of `SSL_peak()`, which
nicely escaped the word checks, is no longer relevant.
We do not use `SSL_peek()` anymore since connection filters were
introduced.
Closes#14091
Based on the standards and guidelines we use for our documentation.
- expand contractions (they're => they are etc)
- host name = > hostname
- file name => filename
- user name = username
- man page => manpage
- run-time => runtime
- set-up => setup
- back-end => backend
- a HTTP => an HTTP
- Two spaces after a period => one space after period
Closes#14073
Previously this was one single manpage for two functions but as they are
two separate ones since a while back, they should each clearly document
their single specific functions.
Follow-up to eefcc1bda4Closes#14068
- use imperative form
- use lowercase
- no period
- unify some phrases
- fix curl_multi_socket and curl_multi_socket_all to keep their own
descriptions
Closes#14062
