From c7f3c073f4821ed70281c4867b796cb3522dc6e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jay Satiro Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2019 12:27:35 -0400 Subject: docs: Explain behavior change in --tlsv1. options since 7.54 Since 7.54 --tlsv1. options use the specified version or later, however older versions of curl documented it as using just the specified version which may or may not have happened depending on the TLS library. Document this discrepancy to allay confusion for users familiar with the old documentation that expect just the specified version.
