2017-08-28docs/examples: demonstrate how to select SSL backendsJohannes Schindelin
The newly-introduced curl_global_sslset() function deserves to be show-cased. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

2017-08-28vtls: introduce curl_global_sslset()Johannes Schindelin
Let's add a compile time safe API to select an SSL backend. This function needs to be called *before* curl_global_init(), and can be called only once. Side note: we do not explicitly test that it is called before curl_global_init(), but we do verify that it is not called multiple times (even implicitly). If SSL is used before the function was called, it will use whatever the CURL_SSL_BACKEND environment variable says (or default to the first available SSL backend), and if a subsequent call to curl_global_sslset() disagrees with the previous choice, it will fail with CURLSSLSET_TOO_LATE. The function also accepts an "avail" parameter to point to a (read-only) NULL-terminated list of available backends. This comes in real handy if an application wants to let the user choose between whatever SSL backends the currently available libcurl has to offer: simply call curl_global_sslset(-1, NULL, &avail); which will return CURLSSLSET_UNKNOWN_BACKEND and populate the avail variable to point to the relevant information to present to the user. Just like with the HTTP/2 push functions, we have to add the function declaration of curl_global_sslset() function to the header file *multi.h* because VMS and OS/400 require a stable order of functions declared in include/curl/*.h (where the header files are sorted alphabetically). This looks a bit funny, but it cannot be helped. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

2017-08-17ssh: add the ability to enable compression (for SCP/SFTP)Viktor Szakats
The required low-level logic was already available as part of `libssh2` (via `LIBSSH2_FLAG_COMPRESS` `libssh2_session_flag()`[1] option.) This patch adds the new `libcurl` option `CURLOPT_SSH_COMPRESSION` (boolean) and the new `curl` command-line option `--compressed-ssh` to request this `libssh2` feature. To have compression enabled, it is required that the SSH server supports a (zlib) compatible compression method and that `libssh2` was built with `zlib` support enabled.

2017-08-16examples/ftpuploadresume: checksrc complianceJay Satiro
2017-08-15progress: Track total times following redirectsRyan Winograd
Update the progress timers `t_nslookup`, `t_connect`, `t_appconnect`, `t_pretransfer`, and `t_starttransfer` to track the total times for these activities when a redirect is followed. Previously, only the times for the most recent request would be tracked. Related changes: - Rename `Curl_pgrsResetTimesSizes` to `Curl_pgrsResetTransferSizes` now that the function only resets transfer sizes and no longer modifies any of the progress timers. - Add a bool to the `Progress` struct that is used to prevent double-counting `t_starttransfer` times. Added test case 1399. Fixes #522 and Known Bug 1.8 Closes #1602 Reported-by: joshhe on github
2017-08-15zsh.pl: produce a working completion script againKamil Dudka
Commit curl-7_54_0-118-g8b2f22e changed the output format of curl --help to use <file> and <dir> instead of FILE and DIR, which caused zsh.pl to produce a broken completion script: % curl --<TAB> _curl:10: no such file or directory: seconds Closes #1779

2017-06-28CURLOPT_SOCKS5_AUTH: allowed methods for SOCKS5 proxy authKamil Dudka
If libcurl was built with GSS-API support, it unconditionally advertised GSS-API authentication while connecting to a SOCKS5 proxy. This caused problems in environments with improperly configured Kerberos: a stock libcurl failed to connect, despite libcurl built without GSS-API connected fine using username and password. This commit introduces the CURLOPT_SOCKS5_AUTH option to control the allowed methods for SOCKS5 authentication at run time. Note that a new option was preferred over reusing CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH for compatibility reasons because the set of authentication methods allowed by default was different for HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies.

2017-06-21--request-target: instead of --strip-path-slashDaniel Stenberg
... and CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET instead of CURLOPT_STRIP_PATH_SLASH. This option instead provides the full "alternative" target to use in the request, instead of extracting the path from the URL. Test 1298 and 1299 updated accordingly. Idea-by: Evert Pot Suggestion: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2017/06/19/options-with-curl/comment-page-1/#comment-18373 Closes #1593
2017-06-19http: add --strip-path-slash and CURLOPT_STRIP_PATH_SLASHDaniel Stenberg

2017-06-19getinfo: return sizes as curl_off_tDaniel Stenberg
