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

# `--netrc`
|
|
|
|
Make curl scan the *.netrc* file in the user's home directory for login name
|
|
and password. This is typically used for FTP on Unix. If used with HTTP, curl
|
|
enables user authentication. See *netrc(5)* and *ftp(1)* for details on the
|
|
file format. Curl does not complain if that file does not have the right
|
|
permissions (it should be neither world- nor group-readable). The environment
|
|
variable "HOME" is used to find the home directory.
|
|
|
|
On Windows two filenames in the home directory are checked: *.netrc* and
|
|
*_netrc*, preferring the former. Older versions on Windows checked for *_netrc*
|
|
only.
|
|
|
|
A quick and simple example of how to setup a *.netrc* to allow curl to FTP to
|
|
the machine host.domain.com with username 'myself' and password 'secret' could
|
|
look similar to:
|
|
|
|
machine host.domain.com
|
|
login myself
|
|
password secret
