tracker (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=316191), I now made
curl-config --features and --protocols show the correct output when built
with NSS.

Previously it would fail if the ca bundle wasn't present, even if the code
ignored the verification results.

Tests 35, 544 545 added: binary data POSTs.

lib is built shared with libtool.

Added test cases 2002 and 2003 (the latter disabled for now)

same easy handle
Fixed the filecheck: make target to work outside the source tree

building with VC8 to get the "manifest" embedded to make fine stand-alone
binaries. The maketgz and the src/Makefile.vc6 files were adjusted
accordingly.

that libcurl tried to re-use connections a bit too much when using non-SSL
protocols tunneled over a HTTP proxy.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=332917 about a HTTP redirect to
FTP that caused memory havoc. His work together with my efforts created two
fixes:

#1 - FTP::file was moved to struct ftp_conn, because is has to be dealt with
     at connection cleanup, at which time the struct HandleData could be
     used by another connection.
     Also, the unused char *urlpath member is removed from struct FTP.

#2 - provide a Curl_reset_reqproto() function that frees
     data->reqdata.proto.* on connection setup if needed (that is if the
     SessionHandle was used by a different connection).

that specifying a proxy with a trailing slash didn't work (unless it also
contained a port number).

CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS option added for dynamic.
Fix some OS400 features.

in the connectdata structure by a single handler table ptr.

Added support for skipping tests based on key words.

man page.

a response that was larger than 16KB is now improved slightly so that now
the restriction at 16KB is for the headers only and it should be a rare
situation where the response-headers exceed 16KB. Thus, I consider #47 fixed
and the header limitation is now known as known bug #48.

string: "FLUSH". Using that will cause libcurl to flush its cookies to the
CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR file.

bumps and what the version number's significance to all that is.

risk of failures.

This happened because the tftp code always uncondionally did a bind()
without caring if one already had been done and then it failed. I wrote a
test case (1009) to verify this, but it is a bit error-prone since it will
have to pick a fixed local port number and since the tests are run on so
many different hosts in different situations I add it in disabled state.

CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETDATA to set a callback that allows an application to replace
the socket() call used by libcurl. It basically allows the app to change
address, protocol or whatever of the socket. (I also did some whitespace
indent/cleanups in lib/url.c which kind of hides some of these changes, sorry
for mixing those in.)

CURLE_PEER_FAILED_VERIFICATION (standard CURL_NO_OLDIES style), and made this
return code get used by the previous SSH MD5 fingerprint check in case it
fails.

CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 and the curl tool --hostpubmd5. They both make
the SCP or SFTP connection verify the remote host's md5 checksum of the public
key before doing a connect, to reduce the risk of a man-in-the-middle attack.

Added test case 1008 to verify. Note that #47 is still there.

function do wrong on all input bytes that are >= 0x80 (decimal 128) due to a
signed / unsigned mistake in the code. I fixed it and added test case 543 to
verify.

previous proto struct was kept.

notifier callback(s).

variables to avoid shadowing global declarations.

curl_easy_setopt() that alters how libcurl functions when following
redirects. It makes libcurl obey the RFC2616 when a 301 response is received
after a non-GET request is made. Default libcurl behaviour is to change
method to GET in the subsequent request (like it does for response code 302
- because that's what many/most browsers do), but with this CURLOPT_POST301
option enabled it will do what the spec says and do the next request using
the same method again. I.e keep POST after 301.

The curl tool got this option as --post301

Test case 1011 and 1012 were added to verify.

CURLOPT_NOBODY enabled but not CURLOPT_HEADER, libcurl wouldn't do TYPE
before it does SIZE which makes it less useful. I walked over the code and
made it do this properly, and added test case 542 to verify it.

URLs ending with a slash properly (it should list the contents of that
directory). Test case 351 brought back and also test 1010 was added.

the --proxy-negotiate command line option to allow a user to explicitly
select it.

o It looks for the NSS database first in the environment variable SSL_DIR,
  then in /etc/pki/nssdb, then it initializes with no database if neither of
  those exist.

o If the NSS PKCS#11 libnspsem.so driver is available then PEM files may be
  loaded, including the ca-bundle. If it is not available then only
  certificates already in the NSS database are used.

o Tries to detect whether a file or nickname is being passed in so the right
  thing is done

o Added a bit of code to make the output more like the OpenSSL module,
  including displaying the certificate information when connecting in
  verbose mode

o Improved handling of certificate errors (expired, untrusted, etc)

The libnsspem.so PKCS#11 module is currently only available in Fedora
8/rawhide. Work will be done soon to upstream it. The NSS module will work
with or without it, all that changes is the source of the certificates and
keys.

key was specified and there was no HOME environment variable, and then it
didn't continue to try the other auth methods. Now it will instead try to
get the files id_dsa.pub and id_dsa from the current directory if none of
the two conditions were met.

sent by curl, if not the addresses themselves.
