2019-02-01schannel: stop calling it "winssl"Daniel Stenberg
Stick to "Schannel" everywhere. The configure option --with-winssl is kept to allow existing builds to work but --with-schannel is added as an alias. Closes #3504
2019-01-31doc: use meaningless port number in CURLOPT_LOCALPORT exampleJohn Marshall
Use an ephemeral port number here; previously the example had 8080 which could be confusing as the common web server port number might be misinterpreted as suggesting this option affects the remote port. URL: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-01/0084.html Closes #3513
2019-01-29Escape the '\'Gisle Vanem
A backslash should be escaped in Roff / Troff.
2019-01-29TODO: WinSSL: 'Add option to disable client cert auto-send'Jay Satiro
By default WinSSL selects and send a client certificate automatically, but for privacy and consistency we should offer an option to disable the default auto-send behavior. Reported-by: Jeroen Ooms Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/2262

2019-01-02docs: mention potential leak in curl_slist_appendDaniel Gustafsson
When a non-empty list is appended to, and used as the returnvalue, the list pointer can leak in case of an allocation failure in the curl_slist_append() call. This is correctly handled in curl code usage but we weren't explicitly pointing it out in the API call documentation. Fix by extending the RETURNVALUE manpage section and example code.

2018-12-27hostip: support wildcard hostsClaes Jakobsson
This adds support for wildcard hosts in CURLOPT_RESOLVE. These are try-last so any non-wildcard entry is resolved first. If specified, any host not matched by another CURLOPT_RESOLVE config will use this as fallback. Example send a.com to 10.0.0.1 and everything else to 10.0.0.2: curl --resolve *:443:10.0.0.2 --resolve a.com:443:10.0.0.1 \ https://a.com https://b.com This is probably quite similar to using: --connect-to a.com:443:10.0.0.1:443 --connect-to :443:10.0.0.2:443 Closes #3406 Reviewed-by: Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>
2018-12-25FAQ: remove mention of sourceforge for githubDaniel Gustafsson
The project bug tracker is no longer hosted at sourceforge but is now hosted on the curl Github page. Update the FAQ to reflect. Closes #3410 Reviewed-by: Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>
2018-12-21http: added options for allowing HTTP/0.9 responsesDaniel Stenberg
Added CURLOPT_HTTP09_ALLOWED and --http0.9 for this purpose. For now, both the tool and library allow HTTP/0.9 by default. docs/DEPRECATE.md lays out the plan for when to reverse that default: 6 months after the 7.64.0 release. The options are added already now so that applications/scripts can start using them already now. Fixes #2873 Closes #3383

2018-12-14http: Implement trailing headers for chunked transfersAyoub Boudhar
This adds the CURLOPT_TRAILERDATA and CURLOPT_TRAILERFUNCTION options that allow a callback based approach to sending trailing headers with chunked transfers. The test server (sws) was updated to take into account the detection of the end of transfer in the case of trailing headers presence. Test 1591 checks that trailing headers can be sent using libcurl. Closes #3350
2018-12-13cookies: leave secure cookies aloneDaniel Gustafsson
Only allow secure origins to be able to write cookies with the 'secure' flag set. This reduces the risk of non-secure origins to influence the state of secure origins. This implements IETF Internet-Draft draft-ietf-httpbis-cookie-alone-01 which updates RFC6265. Closes #2956 Reviewed-by: Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>

2018-12-11documentation: curl_formadd field and file names are now escapedPatrick Monnerat
Prior to 7.56.0, fieldnames and filenames were set in Content-Disposition header without special processing: this may lead to invalid RFC 822 quoted-strings. 7.56.0 introduces escaping of backslashes and double quotes in these names: mention it in the documentation. Reported-by: daboul on github Closes #3361
2018-12-03checksrc: add COPYRIGHTYEAR checkDaniel Gustafsson
Forgetting to bump the year in the copyright clause when hacking has been quite common among curl developers, but a traditional checksrc check isn't a good fit as it would penalize anyone hacking on January 1st (among other things). This adds a more selective COPYRIGHTYEAR check which intends to only cover the currently hacked on changeset. The check for updated copyright year is currently not enforced on all files but only on files edited and/or committed locally. This is due to the amount of files which aren't updated with their correct copyright year at the time of their respective commit. To further avoid running this expensive check for every developer, it adds a new local override mode for checksrc where a .checksrc file can be used to turn on extended warnings locally.

Commit 7c5837e79280e6abb3ae143dfc49bca5e74cdd11 deprecated the option making it a manual code-edit operation to turn it back on. The removal process has thus started and is now documented in docs/DEPRECATE.md so remove from the TODO to avoid anyone looking for something to pick up spend cycles on an already in-progress entry.
