7.50.0 shipped on Jul 21 2016, over seven years ago. We no longer need
to specify version changes for earlier releases in the generated output.
This ups the limit from the previous 7.30.0 (Apr 12 2013)
This hides roughly 35 "added in" mentions.
Closes#11651
- removed some unnecessary blurb to focus
- moved up the more important URL details
- put "globbing" into its own subtitle and moved down a little
- mention the online man page in the version section
Closes#11638
We remove support for building curl with gskit.
- This is a niche TLS library, only running on some IBM systems
- no regular curl contributors use this backend
- no CI builds use or verify this backend
- gskit, or the curl adaption for it, lacks many modern TLS features
making it an inferior solution
- build breakages in this code take weeks or more to get detected
- fixing gskit code is mostly done "flying blind"
This removal has been advertized in DEPRECATED in Jan 2, 2023 and it has
been mentioned on the curl-library mailing list.
It could be brought back, this is not a ban. Given proper effort and
will, gskit support is welcome back into the curl TLS backend family.
Closes#11460
This is a bad header fold but since the popular browsers accept this
violation, so does curl now. Unless built with hyper.
Add test 1473 to verify and adjust test 2306.

"Note that verbose output of curl activities and network traffic might
contain sensitive data, including user names, credentials or secret data
content. Be aware and be careful when sharing trace logs with others."
Closes#11596
It was previously unlimited by default, but that's not a sensible
default. While changing this has a remote risk of breaking an existing
use case, I figure it is more likely to actually save users from loops.
Closes#11581
- If the user set a legacy algorithm list (CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST) then
use the SCHANNEL_CRED legacy structure to pass the list to Schannel.
- If the user set both a legacy algorithm list and a TLS 1.3 cipher list
then abort.
Although MS doesn't document it, Schannel will not negotiate TLS 1.3
when SCHANNEL_CRED is used. That means setting a legacy algorithm list
limits the user to earlier versions of TLS.
Prior to this change, since 8beff435 (precedes 7.85.0), libcurl would
ignore legacy algorithms in Windows 10 1809 and later.

- Update the OpenSSL connect state machine to handle
SSL_ERROR_WANT_RETRY_VERIFY.
This allows libcurl users that are using custom certificate validation
to suspend processing while waiting for external I/O during certificate
validation.

Closes#11416
Add support for command line variables. Set variables with --variable
name=content or --variable name@file (where "file" can be stdin if set
to a single dash (-)).
Variable content is expanded in option parameters using "{{name}}"
(without the quotes) if the option name is prefixed with
"--expand-". This gets the contents of the variable "name" inserted, or
a blank if the name does not exist as a variable. Insert "{{" verbatim
in the string by prefixing it with a backslash, like "\\{{".
Import an environment variable with --variable %name. It makes curl exit
with an error if the environment variable is not set. It can also rather
get a default value if the variable does not exist, using =content or
@file like shown above.
Example: get the USER environment variable into the URL:
--variable %USER
--expand-url = "https://example.com/api/{{USER}}/method"
When expanding variables, curl supports a set of functions that can make
the variable contents more convenient to use. It can trim leading and
trailing white space with "trim", output the contents as a JSON quoted
string with "json", URL encode it with "url" and base 64 encode it with
"b64". To apply functions to a variable expansion, add them colon
separated to the right side of the variable. They are then performed in
a left to right order.
Example: get the contents of a file called $HOME/.secret into a variable
called "fix". Make sure that the content is trimmed and percent-encoded
sent as POST data:
--variable %HOME=/home/default
--expand-variable fix@{{HOME}}/.secret
--expand-data "{{fix:trim:url}}"

Closes#11346
Introduce a --enable-form-api configure option to control its inclusion
in builds. The condition name defined for it is CURL_DISABLE_FORM_API.
Form api code is dependent of MIME: configure and CMake handle this
dependency automatically: CMake by making it a dependent option
explicitly, configure by inheriting the MIME value by default and
rejecting explicit incompatible values.
"form-api" is now a new hidden test feature.
Update libcurl modules to respect this option and adjust tests
accordingly.

File 'docs/CONTRIBUTE.md' includes a description of how one should write
commit messages in the curl project. Different possible parts of the
message are enclosed in square brackets. One exception is the section
describing how the curl project doesn't use "Signed-off-by" commit
trailers [1], which is enclosed in an opening curly brace paired with a
closing square bracket.

other files that were missing .IP at the end.
Closes#11375
quote.d was missing a .IP at the end which caused the paragraphs
generated for See-also, Multi, and Example to not be indented correctly.
I also remove a redundant "This option can be used multiple times.", and

are part of the list of commands and which aren't.

- Implement AUTH=+LOGIN for CURLOPT_LOGIN_OPTIONS to prefer plaintext
LOGIN over SASL auth.
Prior to this change there was no method to be able to fall back to
LOGIN if an IMAP server advertises SASL capabilities. However, this may
be desirable for e.g. a misconfigured server.
Per: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5092.html#section-3.2
";AUTH=<enc-auth-type>" looks to be the correct way to specify what
authenication method to use, regardless of SASL or not.

Closes#11318
- added and documented --trace-ids to prepend (after the timestamp)
the transfer and connection identifiers to each verbose log line
- format is [n-m] with `n` being the transfer id and `m` being the
connection id. In case there is not valid connection id, print 'x'.
- Log calls with a handle that has no transfer id yet, are written
without any ids.
Closes#11185
- add an `id` long to Curl_easy, -1 on init
- once added to a multi (or its own multi), it gets
a non-negative number assigned by the connection cache
- `id` is unique among all transfers using the same
cache until reaching LONG_MAX where it will wrap
around. So, not unique eternally.
- CURLINFO_CONN_ID returns the connection id attached to
data or, if none present, data->state.lastconnect_id
- variables and type declared in tool for write out
