Since "too old" versions are no longer included in the generated man page, this field is now mandatory so that it won't be forgotten and then not included in the documentation. Closes #7786

Specify the user name and password to use for proxy authentication.

If you use a Windows SSPI-enabled curl binary and do either Negotiate or NTLM
|
|
authentication then you can tell curl to select the user name and password
|
|
from your environment by specifying a single colon with this option: "-U :".
|
|
|
|
On systems where it works, curl will hide the given option argument from
|
|
process listings. This is not enough to protect credentials from possibly
|
|
getting seen by other users on the same system as they will still be visible
|
|
for a brief moment before cleared. Such sensitive data should be retrieved
|
|
from a file instead or similar and never used in clear text in a command line.
|
|
|
|
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
