David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this. 2003-10-29 04:53:21 -05:00
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. 2006-08-08 18:56:46 -04:00			`This release includes the following changes:`

glob: backslash escaping bug curl didn't properly handle escaping characters in a URL with the use of backslash. It did an attempt, but that failed as reported in bug 3022551. The described example was using the URL "http://example.com?{AB,C\,D}". I've now removed the special-handling of letters following the backslash and I also removed the bad extra check that triggered this particular bug.
