Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer. 2006-08-09 00:56:46 +02:00			`This release includes the following changes:`

RELEASE-NOTES: synced with 8723cade21fb 2013-04-13 17:43:30 +02:00			`o darwinssl: add TLS session resumption`
darwinssl: add TLS crypto authentication Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it. 2013-04-28 07:15:07 +02:00			`o darwinssl: add TLS crypto authentication`
