On this day six years ago we shipped #curl 7.61.0 which introduced showing HTTP headers in boldface in terminal output. And more.

It seems I have committed about 67% of all commits in #curl to date. Committed, not authored.

#curl


I'll introduce myself enough to say that I've been working on a Linux distro for 30 years. #curl is part of the core of this one and most others. There should be a curl flag to unfurl. Hm. Add a "--flag" switch.

One thing that curl needed was wcurl. wget is nice enough you bet. For decades both I did vet. They're fraternal twins, I see, born in 1996, the years doesn't sticks, it can't be 28 years, I have socks5 older than that. But now with wcurl there is no excuse for anybody not to give curl a whirl.

We are fourteen days from the pending next #curl release.

At 11 changes and 214 merged bugfixes. One CVE.

41 persons (10 new) have authored commits in the source code repository since we shipped 8.8.0.

For more than 20 years, I’ve downloaded files using wget because I could never remember curl options.

It turns out that I was not alone.

@samueloph created a simple wrapper around curl called "wcurl". This is brilliant! And, yes, the name is very intuitive. Best of all, it is already in Debian (and on my system) but it should really be part of the official curl distribution (ping @bagder )

Willy Tarreau's feedback on LTS (for #curl) could be the best comment my blog ever received: daniel.haxx.se/blog/2024/06/27…

(Willy is known as the man behind haproxy)

On this day, **twenty-six years ago**, we shipped #curl 4.6 that introduced support for .netrc.

curl-for-win build issued with the cacert update. Also cooking a PR that aims to allow embedding this database into #curl itself: github.com/curl/curl/pull/1405…

Bikeshed moment. I'm poking on the #curl website front page: github.com/curl/curl-www/pull/…

Interesting 🤔 how #CVE are leveraged as resume items, putting #programmers #developers & project leads under pressure by #bogus CVE reports or unnecessary high CVE ratings.

Popular and obscure programs are affected in the #OpenSource #POSIX world e.g #Linux #freeBSD #netBSD #openBSD

#Curl ➰ by #Daniel #Stenberg and #IP by #Fedor #Indutny are popular programs hit by this #phenomena which can lead to unwarranted #panic in the users space

The pending #curl release is moved to one week later: curl.se/mail/lib-2024-06/0062.…

Because I am a BDFL and I need my summer vacation. 😀

Yesterday, I blogged about curl's graceful connection shutdown. I was a bit vague on why this is beneficial in TCP.

With the help of Dan Fandrich, I provide a more detailed explanation. Hope it helps.

I love #curl. It is a very nice and useful piece of #softwae. I use it i #C++, #Java, #PHP and other for any type of secure connection. Keep on with that great job!


took a while, but now curl container is the top level curl container on quay - quay.io/search?q=curl #curl

Kaboom. tatsuhiro just made #http3 transfers in #curl about 39% faster

github.com/curl/curl/pull/1401…


A refreshed #curl #HTTP3 backends image as of today.

It has not gotten easier.

Updates:

- I marked the recommended/experimental columns
- quiche supports "the family"
- we require OpenSSL 3.3 for their QUIC stack


In case you missed it: #curl on #windows (the one bundled by Microsoft themselves) now ships version 8.7.1

Here's a user in the wild who was bitten by the Apple "backdoor" in #curl:

github.com/curl/curl/discussio…

#curl


Here's another good idea coming from the #curl user survey:

Support "curl -h --insecure" etc to output the manpage section for the --insecure command line option in the terminal. Should be possible to work with either long or short versions of command line options.

github.com/curl/curl/pull/1399…

Open for grabs!
