#curl


We first made the #curl build use #nroff for building the hugehelp file in December 1998, for curl 5.2. This makes "curl -M" work.

Now, I'm working on a change that finally removes nroff from the curl build process: github.com/curl/curl/pull/1304…


The best way to truly support my work on #curl, is to make your company pay for a support contract: curl.se/support.html

I work full time on #curl for wolfSSL. Support customers make me get paychecks. Paychecks let me buy food. Food makes my family happy. A happy family lets me do more #curl. More #curl benefits ... well, you.

For the #curl distro discussion 2024 (github.com/curl/curl/wiki/curl…) we have confirmed intended attendance by people packaging curl for Debian, Mageia, RHEL/Fedora, Windows 10/11, MacPorts, Homebrew, Yocto Project and AlmaLinux

I'm thrilled!

I have a hard time understanding what this graph actually shows or which point it proves.

Naturally with many new contributors the average numbers per contributor decreases.

To prove your claim wouldn't you share a graph of total LOC versus number of contributors? For #curl I believe the contributor counts grows faster than the codebase.

In the #curl project, we are picking up new commit authors and contributors to the project faster than the code base is growing...

Yes, here's a new graph!

Lines of code per author + contributor

Is there any good resource for the nitty-gritty details of building #Curl (mostly concerned with the library) for Windows, specifically with MSVC?

I muddled through getting things working from the little bit in the Readme.md in the winbuild folder, but I could really use more, especially since I'm having a hell of a time getting it to compile with native SSL support from within Visual Studio (weirdly, I can get it fine from a CLI session?).

Web searches seem to really love proffering everything.curl.dev/ to me, but it'd be barely more helpful even if it wasn't entirely based on out-of-date stuff that doesn't apply anymore :(

@jolle that seems to sum it up pretty well 🙂

My total share of all #curl commits is shrinking over time. At 56.6% right now.


Number of commits per committers in #curl. 1242 commit authors. Both axis are log scaled.

the median age a CVE has existed in code when reported in #curl is 7.7 years!

lines of code per known vulnerability in #curl, 1998 - 2023. I purposely leave out the last year simply because it is a little too new code there to be fair - and that makes the graph really spike.

Note also that this treats all vulns equal, no matter which severity

If you want to improve #curl as shipped in distributions, join us in March at curl distro discussion: github.com/curl/curl/wiki/curl…

I ran into good people from #homebrew yesterday so now we will get attendance from them as well!

Stocking up. Come find me at #FOSDEM for a #curl sticker or two.
