... and remove it from the dist tarball. It has served its time, it
barely gets updated anymore and "everything curl" is now convering all
this document once tried to include, and does it more and better.
In the compressed scenario, this removes ~15K data from the binary,
which is 25% of the -M output.
It remains in the git repo for now for as long as the web site builds a
page using that as source. It renders poorly on the site (especially for
mobile users) so its not even good there.
Closes#3587
- replace tabs with spaces where possible
- remove line ending spaces
- remove double/triple newlines at EOF
- fix a non-UTF-8 character
- cleanup a few indentations/line continuations
in manual examples

Commit 80a87e8a broke 'make dist' as it can't handle installing from
absolute target names. Rearranged the dependencies so the absolute name
is used for building but the relative name is use for distributing.
$< is only allowed in implicit rules in some non-GNU makes (e.g. BSD,
AIX) so avoid use elsewhere by referencing the dependent curl.1 file
directly instead. This is somewhat tricky because the file is supplied
in the packaged tar ball (but not in git) but must still be able to be
rebuilt when its dependencies change. The right thing must happen in
both tar ball and git source trees, as well as in both in-tree and
out-of-tree builds.
Also heavily edited for content. Removed lots of old cruft that we added
like 10+ years ago that is likely incorrect by now.
Also removed INSTALL.devcpp for same reason.
Since the mk-ca-bundle tool itself isn't installed with make install,
there's no point in installing its documentation.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-08/0057.html
Reported-by: Guenter Knauf
This is the first version of this new document, detailing the seven
perhaps most important internal structs in libcurl source code:
1.1 SessionHandle
1.2 connectdata
1.3 Curl_multi
1.4 Curl_handler
1.5 conncache
1.6 Curl_share
1.7 CookieInfo
This is a new documentation for the source tree. This information has
been present since a long time at
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html but now it is put into a plain
text version too for wider distribution. The web version will be
automatically generated from this source document.
