2020-06-10wording: avoid blacklist/whitelist stereotypesDaniel Stenberg
Instead of discussing if there's value or meaning (implied or not) in the colors, let's use words without the same possibly negative associations. Closes #5546

2020-05-23setopt: add CURLOPT_PROXY_ISSUERCERT(_BLOB) for coherencyGilles Vollant
Closes #5431
2020-05-15setopt: support certificate options in memory with struct curl_blobGilles Vollant
This change introduces a generic way to provide binary data in setopt options, called BLOBs. This change introduces these new setopts: CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT_BLOB, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT_BLOB, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY_BLOB, CURLOPT_SSLCERT_BLOB and CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB.

2020-04-05CURLINFO_CONDITION_UNMET: return true for 304 http status codeKwon-Young Choi
In libcurl, CURLINFO_CONDITION_UNMET is used to avoid writing to the output file if the server did not transfered a file based on time condition. In the same manner, getting a 304 HTTP response back from the server, for example after passing a custom If-Match-* header, also fulfill this condition. Fixes #5181 Closes #5183
2020-03-24copyright: fix out-of-date copyright ranges and missing headersDaniel Stenberg
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a regex whitelist for the files that don't need copyright headers. Removed three (mostly usesless) README files from docs/ Closes #5141
2020-03-18schannel: add "best effort" revocation check optionJohannes Schindelin
- Implement new option CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT and --ssl-revoke-best-effort to allow a "best effort" revocation check. A best effort revocation check ignores errors that the revocation check was unable to take place. The reasoning is described in detail below and discussed further in the PR. --- When running e.g. with Fiddler, the schannel backend fails with an unhelpful error message: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate. Sadly, many enterprise users who are stuck behind MITM proxies suffer the very same problem. This has been discussed in plenty of issues: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3727, https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/264, for example. In the latter, a Microsoft Edge developer even made the case that the common behavior is to ignore issues when a certificate has no recorded distribution point for revocation lists, or when the server is offline. This is also known as "best effort" strategy and addresses the Fiddler issue. Unfortunately, this strategy was not chosen as the default for schannel (and is therefore a backend-specific behavior: OpenSSL seems to happily ignore the offline servers and missing distribution points). To maintain backward-compatibility, we therefore add a new flag (`CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT`) and a new option (`--ssl-revoke-best-effort`) to select the new behavior. Due to the many related issues Git for Windows and GitHub Desktop, the plan is to make this behavior the default in these software packages. The test 2070 was added to verify this behavior, adapted from 310.

2019-12-26CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION.3: Document that size is always 1Jay Satiro
For compatibility with `fwrite`, the `CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION` callback is passed two `size_t` parameters which, when multiplied, designate the number of bytes of data passed in. In practice, CURL always sets the first parameter (`size`) to 1. This practice is also enshrined in documentation and cannot be changed in future. The documentation states that the default callback is `fwrite`, which means `fwrite` must be a suitable function for this purpose. However, the documentation also states that the callback must return the number of *bytes* it successfully handled, whereas ISO C `fwrite` returns the number of items (each of size `size`) which it wrote. The only way these numbers can be equal is if `size` is 1. Since `size` is 1 and can never be changed in future anyway, document that fact explicitly and let users rely on it.
