@ -1629,6 +1629,10 @@ Specify the user name and password to use for server authentication. Overrides
If you simply specify the user name, curl will prompt for a password.
The user name and passwords are split up on the first colon, which makes it
impossible to use a colon in the user name with this option. The password can,
still.
If you use an SSPI-enabled curl binary and perform NTLM authentication, you
can force curl to select the user name and password from your environment by
specifying a single colon with this option: "-u :".
