2012-03-10CURLSSH_OPT_AUTH: documented it has no effectArmel Asselin
2012-02-25libcurl docs: version correctionsDaniel Stenberg
Correct some inconsistencies in which version some things were added. Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3494091 Reported by: "curlybugs"
2012-02-16docs: mention that NTLM works with NSS, tooKamil Dudka
2012-02-15DOCS: Added information for CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTH.Steve Holme
Added information relating to the new CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTH parameter and reworked CURLOPT_MAIL_FROM and CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT to be a clearer. Fixed inconsistencies of "vocalisation of the abbreviation" versus "vocalisation of the first word" for all abbreviations. Corrected a typo in CURLOPT_NOPROXY.
2012-02-13s/7.24.1/7.25.0Daniel Stenberg
We will go straight to 7.25.0 due to the new additions
2012-02-09CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS: addedDaniel Stenberg
Allow an appliction to set libcurl specific SSL options. The first and only options supported right now is CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST. It will make libcurl to disable any work-arounds the underlying SSL library may have to address a known security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocol versions. This is a reaction to us unconditionally removing that behavior after this security advisory: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20120124B.html ... it did however cause a lot of programs to fail because of old servers not liking this work-around. Now programs can opt to decrease the security in order to interoperate with old servers better.
2012-02-09add library support for tuning TCP_KEEPALIVEDave Reisner
This adds three new options to control the behavior of TCP keepalives: - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE: enable/disable probes - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE: idle time before sending first probe - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL: delay between successive probes While not all operating systems support the TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_KEEPINTVL knobs, the library will still allow these options to be set by clients, silently ignoring the values.

2011-12-12CURLOPT_INTERFACE: avoid resolving interfaces namesJason Glasgow
Do not try to resolve interfaces names via DNS by recognizing interface names in a few ways. If the interface option argument has a prefix of "if!" then treat the argument as only an interface. Similarly, if the interface argument is the name of an interface (even if it does not have an IP address assigned), treat it as an interface name. Finally, if the interface argument is prefixed by "host!" treat it as a hostname that must be resolved by /etc/hosts or DNS. These changes allow a client using the multi interfaces to avoid blocking on name resolution if the interface loses its IP address or disappears.
2011-12-05CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT: default is 300 secondsDaniel Stenberg
If the option is set to 0, the default timeout will be used - which in modern libcurl versions equals 300 seconds (== 5 minutes). Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2011-12/0051.html Reported by: Vladimir Grishchenko
2011-12-05FTP: call opensocket callback properlyDaniel Stenberg
When the new socket is created for an active connection, it is now done using the open socket callback. Test case 596 was modified to run fine, although it hides the fact that the close callback is still called too many times, as it also gets called for closing sockets that were created with accept().
2011-11-18CURLOPT_QUOTE: SFTP supports the '*'-prefix nowDaniel Stenberg
2011-11-17CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS: set name servers if possibleJason Glasgow
2011-10-24curl_easy_setopt.3: headers can be CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER bytesDaniel Stenberg
Mention this maximum header size for the header callback cases
2011-10-24curl_easy_setopt.3: fix typoDaniel Stenberg
shoot, Dan Fandrich already had this pointed out...
2011-10-24curl_easy_setopt: Added pop3 to CURLOPT_URL.Steve Holme

2011-09-28curl_easy_setopt: Added scp and sftp to the URL sectionDan Fandrich
2011-09-28curl_easy_setopt: A brief tidy upSteve Holme
Slight rewording of the CURLOPT_URL SMTP sub-section. Corrected the incorrect use of hyphens on the three uses of "zero-terminated" with "zero terminated" to match the rest of the document. Corrected the use of an out of place hyphen in CURLOPT_NOPROXY section.
2011-09-26remove short-lived CURL_WRITEFUNC_OUT_OF_MEMORYYang Tse
2011-09-25allow write callbacks to indicate OOM to libcurlYang Tse
Allow (*curl_write_callback) write callbacks to return CURL_WRITEFUNC_OUT_OF_MEMORY to properly indicate libcurl of OOM conditions inside the callback itself.
2011-09-18CURLOPT_URL docs: no need to mention function namesDaniel Stenberg
2011-09-18CURLOPT_URL: Expanded URL descriptionSteve Holme

2011-06-30docs: FTP quotes support '*' prefix to ignore errorsDaniel Stenberg
By default libcurl stops processing quote commands on failures.
2011-06-10CURLOPT_WRITEHEADER: clarify the docsDaniel Stenberg
2011-06-01CURLOPT_WILDCARDMATCH: minor style editDaniel Stenberg
Due to some flaw in roffit I removed some style changes to make the web page look better.
2011-05-27curl_easy_setopt.3: NOPROGRESS also affects the callbackDaniel Stenberg

2011-05-19typo: close is in man page section 3Daniel Stenberg
2011-05-18curl_easy_setopt.3: document CLOSESOCKET* optionsDaniel Stenberg
2011-05-05socks proxy: allow socks5h:// prefix tooDaniel Stenberg
Using 'socks5h' as proxy protocol will make it a CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME proxy which is SOCKS5 and asking the proxy to resolve host names. I found no "standard" protocol name for this.
2011-05-02curl_easy_setopt.3: clarify the SSH KEYFILE options usageDaniel Stenberg
The internal defaults are important info
2011-05-02docs: mention the protocol:// support in proxy stringsDaniel Stenberg

The new libcurl and command line options are now described.
2011-04-09curl_easy_setopt.3: CURLOPT_RESOLVE typo versionDaniel Stenberg
Reported by: Hongli Lai
2011-03-29curl_easy_setopt.3: mention TFTP read callback flawDaniel Stenberg
The read callback must return the exact requested amount of data when it is used for doing TFTP uploads. This is due to how it deals with data internally. This could/should be fixed but for now we document the existing behavior. Reported by: Colin Blair Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2011-03/0319.html
2011-03-25TSL-SRP: enabled with OpenSSLPeter Sylvester
If a new enough OpenSSL version is used, configure detects the TLS-SRP support and enables it.
2011-03-15nss: do not ignore value of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEERKamil Dudka
When NSS-powered libcurl connected to a SSL server with CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to zero, NSS remembered that the peer certificate was accepted by libcurl and did not ask the second time when connecting to the same server with CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to one. This patch turns off the SSL session cache for the particular SSL socket if peer verification is disabled. In order to avoid any performance impact, the peer verification is completely skipped in that case, which makes it even faster than before. Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/678580
2011-02-21CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION: requires *SSH_KNOWNHOSTSDaniel Stenberg
Extend the docs to clarify that CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION is only called if the known hosts option is also correctly set!
2011-02-20curl_easy_setopt.3: Removed wrong reference to CURLOPT_USERPASSWORD.Julien Chaffraix
CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH was mentioning CURLOPT_USERPASSWORD instead of CURLOPT_PASSWORD. Reported by: Mike Henshaw
