curl/RELEASE-NOTES
Daniel Stenberg 9a2aed7d7a Chih-Chung Chang reported that if you use CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM and enabled
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, libcurl reported error if a redirect happened even if
the new URL would provide the resumed file. Test case 188 added to verify the
fix (together with existing test 99).
