2013-10-15curl: document the new --tlsv1.[012] optionsDaniel Stenberg
2013-10-12curl: rename --bearer to --oauth2-bearerDaniel Stenberg
The option '--bearer' might be slightly ambiguous in name. It doesn't create any conflict that I am aware of at the moment, however, OAUTH v2 is not the only authentication mechanism which uses "bearer" tokens. Reported-by: Kyle L. Huff URL: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-10/0064.html

2013-09-21curl.1: Added information about optional login options to --user in manpageSteve Holme
Added missing information, from curl 7.31.0, regarding the use of the optional login options that may be specified as part of --user. For example: --user 'user:password;auth=NTLM' in IMAP, POP3 and SMTP protocols.
2013-09-20Documented --dns-* options in curl manpageKim Vandry
2013-09-20pop3: Added basic SASL XOAUTH2 supportSteve Holme
Added the ability to use an XOAUTH2 bearer token [RFC6750] with POP3 for authentication using RFC6749 "OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework". The bearer token is expected to be valid for the user specified in conn->user. If CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER is defined and the connection has an advertised auth mechanism of "XOAUTH2", the user and access token are formatted as a base64 encoded string and sent to the server as "AUTH XOAUTH2 <bearer token>".

2013-07-14src/tool: allow timeouts to accept decimal valuesDave Reisner
Implement wrappers around strtod to convert the user argument to a double with sane error checking. Use this to allow --max-time and --connect-timeout to accept decimal values instead of strictly integers. The manpage is updated to make mention of this feature and, additionally, forewarn that the actual timeout of the operation can vary in its precision (particularly as the value increases in its decimal precision).

2013-04-27darwinssl: add TLS crypto authenticationNick Zitzmann
Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.

2012-04-01curl tool: add filename_effective token for --write-outDave Reisner
By modifying the parameter list for ourWriteOut() and passing the OutStruct that collects data in tool_operate, we get access to the remote name that we're writing to. Shell scripters should find this useful when used in conjuntion with the --remote-header-name option.
2012-03-23docs: clarify -z/--time-cond with filename (mention mtime)Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion)
Original wording could lead users in thinking it tries to somehow parse the filename for a date expression (like news_2012_03_05.html). It never mentions that it actually reads the mtime of the file in filesystem.
2012-02-23curl.1: updated --libcurlDaniel Stenberg
With Colin Hogben's recent work, --libcurl now also works with -F and more. Remove the previous caveat.
2012-02-16--mail-auth documentedDaniel Stenberg
2012-02-09--ssl-allow-beast addedDaniel Stenberg
This new option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. It uses the new libcurl option CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS with the CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST bit set.
2012-02-09curl: use new library-side TCP_KEEPALIVE optionsDave Reisner
Use the new library CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE rather than disabling this via the sockopt callback. If --keepalive-time is used, apply the value to CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL.
2012-01-19curl.1: improve --stderr wordingDaniel Stenberg
As is pointed out in this bug report, there can indeed be situation where --stderr has a point even when the "real" stderr can be redirected. Remove the superfluous and wrong comment. bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3476020
