problems both for HTTP pulling and cloning. Repository size is about 250 Mb,
so it was a considerable amount of Curl's work.
-- Bryan Henderson introduces two things:
- 1) the progress callback gets called more frequently (at times)
- 2) libcurl *might* call the callback when it receives a signal:
-
- libcurl calls the progress callback at least once a second, and sometimes
- when the process receives and catches a signal. Ideally, it would get
- called every time the process receives and catches a signal, but in the
- current implementation, libcurl may fail to recognize a signal during name
- resolution, during the wait for a TCP connection, and during some tiny
- windows other times.
-
- If you want a signal to interrupt your call to libcurl, install a signal
- handler for it. Have that signal handler set a flag indicating that the
- signal was received. Set up a libcurl progress callback that checks that
- flag and, if it is set, returns a nonzero return code.
-
- Two common kinds of signals you might want to allow to interrupt libcurl
- are: 1) SIGINT, the signal that typically results from a user typing
- control-C; 2) SIGALRM, a signal indicating a timeout. (libcurl also has
- specific timeout facilities, but SIGALRM can be from a master timeout
- established at a higher layer of your program).

- Updated the test harness to add a new "crypto" feature check and updated the
appropriate test case to use it. For now, this is treated the same as the
