In May 2024 we have seen more pull-requests in a month in the #curl project than ever before. And there is still a week left.

Shouldn’t that be “thank you for your contribution *of* #Curl”? 😆

@popey I sometimes use this slide to explain what fits in #curl and what does not:


I was tricked into making another #curl graph: the median/average number of lines per source file - over time (includes blanks and comments)

I took my wooden tiles out to meet my lawn and now I have an image for my #curl release presentation next week.

In the #curl project, being written in C, we always work on simplifying the code. One way is to use more internal helper functions and avoid direct use of some functions that are often involved in C mistakes/vulnerabilities.

To measure how this develops, we count number of these function calls used per every thousand lines of code. Over time.
In a graph.

In the #curl project, we spend 3.3 days/day on running tests - around 140,000 tests per commit/PR. In addition to what every developer runs in their own systems of course.

Our test failure rate in CI jobs is at 0.004%, which is annoyingly high when running this many tests.

If you would listen to this #curl presentation next week, what question would you ask me?

This looks interesting

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format.

It can chain requests, capture values and evaluate queries on headers and body response. Hurl is very versatile: it can be used for both fetching data and testing HTTP sessions.

Hurl makes it easy to work with HTML content, #REST / SOAP / GraphQL APIs, or any other XML / JSON based APIs.

(Built with #rustlang powered by #curl)

It has been a long time coming, but I've made it official:

"Daniel no longer answers questions on stackoverflow. Use a dedicated public curl forum for accurate and timely answers about anything #curl. "

(yes, speaking about myself in 3rd person)

@bagder Even high-end workstation synthesizers run #curl

This photo was taken from a Roland Fantom 6. I think it's using curl within the firmware update process.


1. do not assume that URLs will be treated the same cross user-agents.

2. do not assume that IPv4-mapped IPv6-addresses can be written in octal.

Another day. Another security report against #curl we could close.

"To me, the latest is the latest my OS provides me. If #curl maintainers dont care about pushing the latest into the OSes they support, it's not me to blame. I think curl maintainers should push Centos to provide the latest to all users. What's the purpose of you fixing multiple bugs and security holes if you dont spend time to make it available to the broader audience?"

We are obviously all just too lazy.
