0.057 2016-04-18 10:17:00-04:00 America/New_York (TRIAL RELEASE)
[ADDED]
- Added support for the SSL_CERT_FILE environment variable.
- Added 'peer' attribute to force a connection to a particular
server.
- Added 'connected' method to allow introspection of persistent
connections.
- An array reference of redirection result hash references is included
in the final response hash reference (but only if redirects occur).
[CHANGED]
- Because folded headers are obsoleted in the revised RFCs, if CRLF is
found in header values followed by one or more spaces, they are all
replaced by a single space.
[FIXED]
- Per the RFC, control headers are now sent first before other headers
(which are sent in arbitrary order).
- Only well-known headers have their case canonicalized; all other
headers are sent in the case provided by the user.
- The 'keep_alive' option now also sets the SO_KEEPALIVE option
on the underlying socket to help with long-lived, idle connections.
- Request header field values are now validated against the RFC rules
(i.e. empty or else space-or-tab separated tokens of printable
characters).
0.056 2015-05-19 06:00:40-04:00 America/New_York

will be rendered as an empty header.
[DOCUMENTED]
- Updated HTTP/1.1 spec description from RFC 2616 to RFC 7230-7235
0.045 2014-07-19 23:17:28-04:00 America/New_York (TRIAL RELEASE)

0.044 2014-07-16 23:46:09-04:00 America/New_York
[CHANGED]
- Providing a custom 'Host' header is now a fatal exception. Previously, it
was silently ignored, as the RFC mandates that Host be set from the
URL, but ignoring it could lead to unexpected, confusing errors.
- optimized URL splitting
- Passing 'undef' for any proxy attribute will prevent HTTP::Tiny from
setting the proxy from the environment.

[FIXED]
- Does not send absolute request URI when tunneling SSL via proxy

0.042 2014-02-18 11:23:17EST-0500 America/New_York
[ADDED]

transparent IPv4 or IPv6 support.
0.041 2014-02-17 13:07:54-05:00 America/New_York
[no code change, only an amended Changes file]
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES (from 0.039)]
- The 'proxy' attribute no longer takes precedence over the
'http_proxy' environment variable. With the addition of http_proxy
and https_proxy attributes (and corresponding environment variable
defaults), the legacy 'proxy' attribute now maps to the
all_proxy/ALL_PROXY environment variable and only takes effect when
other proxy attributes are not defined.
[ADDED (since 0.039)]
- Added 'keep_alive' attribute for single-server persistent connections
(Clinton Gormley)
- Added support for Basic authorization with proxies
- Added support for https proxies via CONNECT
[FIXED (since 0.039)]
- Requests are made with one less write for lower latency (Martin
Evans)
