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

--ssl
Warning: this is considered an insecure option. Consider using --ssl-reqd instead to be sure curl upgrades to a secure connection.
Try to use SSL/TLS for the connection - often referred to as STARTTLS or STLS because of the involved commands. Reverts to a non-secure connection if the server does not support SSL/TLS. See also --ftp-ssl-control and --ssl-reqd for different levels of encryption required.
This option is handled in LDAP (added in 7.81.0). It is fully supported by the OpenLDAP backend and ignored by the generic ldap backend.
Please note that a server may close the connection if the negotiation does not succeed.
This option was formerly known as --ftp-ssl (added in 7.11.0). That option name can still be used but might be removed in a future version.
