Dropping `HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1` was not enough to fix it.
Closes#21608
No production code function is allowed to be longer than 500 lines.
The lib/setopt.c:setopt_cptr function is currently exempt, as a single
exception until we make it smaller.
Closes#21492
Due to year-long unreliability.
The default Ubuntu mirror works as fast as the Azure one when it's
working at its normal speed. And has HTTPS.
Also:
- replac the retry hack that turn out to not solve the problem.
- add timeouts to each download step to catch slowness early.

GitHub runners are getting new 3rd-party sources frequntly now, last
week `docker.list`, this week: `google-chrome.sources`. To avoid
playing catch up, allowlist the only one we use: `ubuntu.sources`. If
this is renamed, CI would break. Let's hope this happens much less
often than new sources.

Seen on `ubuntu-slim` runners.
Also:
- extend to two jobs to `ls -l` package sources on both ubuntu-latest,
ubuntu-24.04-arm, and ubuntu-slim.
- drop former stray apt source `ondrej-ubuntu-php-noble.sources`.
It's no longer present on the image.
Closes#21344
- 'badwords' is now a target in Makefile.am
- change badwords.txt to specify plain "words" instead of regexes so the
script can build single regexes when scanning, which makes the script
perform much faster (~6 times faster)
Closes#20869
- update `actions/checkout` from 6.0.1 to 6.0.2
- update `ruff` from 0.14.11 to 0.14.14
- update `cryptography` from 46.0.3 to 46.0.4
- update `psutil` from 7.2.1 to 7.2.2
- update `websockets` from 15.0.1 to 16.0

To run checksrc and spacecheck on the source tree. Also for cmake
to sync up with autotools' `checksrc` target.
- cmake: `curl-lint`
With `-DCURL_LINT=ON`, checks run automatically for all targets.
- autotools: `lint`
Closes#20175
More cost-effective and seems as fast or faster than Intel.
In particular, valgrind seems to be almost 2x fast. So fast the job pair
could fit under 10 minutes if merged again (but would be the longest in
GHA/Linux.)
Installing packages is slightly slower. The package repo is Ubuntu's
which is slower than the Azure mirror used on Intel (unless Azure is
broken, which happened a lot last year).
To add to more jobs, the locally built deps also need to be migrated.
Also:
- add workaround for failing sshd server on Linux arm runners, caused by
world-writable `HOME` directory.
Closes#20231
To formalize they are now XML-compliant (with some asterisks.)
Also to help syntax highlighters work on them to make their content more
readable.
Also:
- Delete empty comment decorations.
- GHA/checksrc: simplify XML check.
- runtests: fail to load test data with XML prolog missing.

macOS was chosen because xmllint comes preinstalled, saving the prereq
install step. But, macOS's xmllint jobs sometimes doesn't finish in 1m
(instead of under 1 second) and gets cancelled, causing flaky failures.
Go with Linux and an install phase (of 15s) instead.
Examples:
https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/19558021722/job/56004334495Closes#19634
There are 58 non-compliant files. Mark them with the `notxml` keyword.
Also include the compliant ones in the GHA/checksrc xmllint CI job.
Also:
- delete XML prolog from the 3 test data files that had them.
- FILEFORMAT.md: document the `notxml` keyword.
- FILEFORMAT.md: fix a typo.

- badwords.pl: add `-a` option to check all lines in source code files.
Before this patch indented lines were skipped (to avoid Markdown code
fences.)
- GHA/checksrc: use `-a` when verifying the source code.
- GHA/checksrc: disable `So` and `But` rules for source code.
- GHA/checksrc: add docs/examples to the verified sources.
- badwords.txt: delete 4 duplicates.
- badwords.txt: group and sort contractions.
- badwords.txt: allow ` url = `, `DIR`, `<file name`.
Closes#19536
Fix SC2046: "Quote this to prevent word splitting."
Ref: https://www.shellcheck.net/wiki/SC2046
Also:
- shellcheck.sh: add `set -eu`.
- shellcheck.sh, yamlcheck.sh: always run from repo root.
- pass `--` before passing the list of files, where missing.
- badwords.pl, cleancmd.pl: rework to accept `git ls-files` arguments.
Requires Perl 5.22+ (2015-Jun-01) on Windows.

- INTERNALS.md: require Perl 5.22 on Windows.
- spacecheck.pl: formatting.
- GHA/http3-linux: rework command to avoid SC2046.
- stop suppressing SC2046 warnings.

It also does shellcheck on `run:` elements, overlapping with
the homegrown `shellcheck-ci.sh` with the same purpose. But it also does
more and perhaps could replace the script too, especially in curl
sub-repos.
Also:
- GHA/macos: delete potentially useful, but commented, and ultimately
unused, non-default Xcode-testing logic. It's causing unused matrix
exceptions, upsetting actionlint.

To silence zizmor 1.16.0 warnings.
Also:
- http3-linux: replace hard-coded workflow name with variable.

- codeql: set `cancel-in-progress: true`.
zizmor apparently does not allow `false` in pedantic mode anymore:
https://github.com/zizmorcore/zizmor/pull/1227
- codeql: sync concurrency setting with the rest of the jobs.
(I'm not sure this is correct, or why it was previously special-cased.)
Expressions used (before and after this patch):
- `group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.event.sha }}-${{ github.event.target_url }}`
for GHA/appveyor-status.
- `group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.event.pull_request.number || github.sha }}`
for all the rest.

For a complete, online, check.
After this patch the check takes 30s, up from a fraction of a second.
Also bump CodeQL actions to their latest version.
Closes#18827
Add script to run all Perl sources through `perl -c` to ensure no
issues, and run this script via GHA/checksrc in CI.
Fallouts:
- fix two repeated declarations.
- move `shell_quote()` from `testutil.pm` to `pathhelp.pm`, to
avoid circular dependency in `globalconfig.pm`.
Closes#18745
In an attempt to make `brew install` commands initialize faster.
Often this command started with 20-50 seconds of delay before this
patch. This is an attempt to make it launch faster.
Cherry-picked from #18736
- requirements.txt: shorten copyright headers.
- requirements.txt: pin packages to versions.
- GHA/windows: use `tests/requirements.txt`.
Pick a `cryptography` package version that satifies both `impacket`
and pytests dependencies.
- GHA/checksrc: move pip deps into a new `requirements.txt`.
To make Dependabot detect and bump them.
- GHA/checksrc: replace apt packages for python test deps with pip
install `tests/**/requirements.txt` to a venv.
- GHA/checksrc: use venv and drop `--break-system-packages`.
- GHA/linux: fix to actually activate venvs.
Follow-up to 2638570241#15578
- GHA/linux: fixup (did not cause an issue)
Follow-up to d75785c7de#18660
- GHA: create venvs later, simplify commands.
- GHA: sync pip command-line options, e.g. drop progress-bar,
everywhere.

Closes#18708
- codespell: break logic out into its own runnable script. Allowing
to run it on local machines.
- codespell: install via `pip`, bump to latest version.
- codespell: show version number in CI log.
- codespell: drop no longer needed word exception: `msdos`.
- codespell: include all curl source tree, except `packages` and
`winbuild`. Drop an obsolete file exclusion.
- add new spellchecker job using the `typos` tool. It includes
the codespell dictionary and a couple more. Use linuxbrew to install
it. This takes 10 seconds, while installing via `cargo` from source
would take over a minute.
- codespell: introduce an inline ignore filter compatible with `cspell`
Make `typos` recognize it, too. Move single exceptions inline.
Fix new typos found. Also rename variables and words to keep
spellchecking exceptions at minumum. This involves touching some tests.
Also switch base64 strings to `%b64[]` to avoid false positives.
