- 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

Private key file name. Allows you to provide your private key in this separate
|
|
file. For SSH, if not specified, curl tries the following candidates in order:
|
|
'~/.ssh/id_rsa', '~/.ssh/id_dsa', './id_rsa', './id_dsa'.
|
|
|
|
If curl is built against OpenSSL library, and the engine pkcs11 is available,
|
|
then a PKCS#11 URI (RFC 7512) can be used to specify a private key located in a
|
|
PKCS#11 device. A string beginning with "pkcs11:" will be interpreted as a
|
|
PKCS#11 URI. If a PKCS#11 URI is provided, then the --engine option will be set
|
|
as "pkcs11" if none was provided and the --key-type option will be set as
|
|
"ENG" if none was provided.
|
|
|
|
If curl is built against Secure Transport or Schannel then this option is
|
|
ignored for TLS protocols (HTTPS, etc). Those backends expect the private key
|
|
to be already present in the keychain or PKCS#12 file containing the
|
|
certificate.
