Jeff King c28ee09503 INSTALL: bump libcurl version to 7.21.3
Our documentation claims we support curl versions back to 7.19.5. But we
can no longer compile with that version since adding an unconditional
use of CURLOPT_RESOLVE in 511cfd3bff (http: add custom hostname to IP
address resolutions, 2022-05-16). That feature wasn't added to libcurl
until 7.21.3.

We could add #ifdefs to make this work back to 7.19.5. But given that
nobody noticed the compilation failure in the intervening two years, it
makes more sense to bump the version in the documentation to 7.21.3
(which is itself over 13 years old).

We could perhaps go forward even more (which would let us drop some
cruft from git-curl-compat.h), but this should be an obviously safe
jump, and we can move forward later.

Note that user-visible syntax for CURLOPT_RESOLVE has grown new features
in subsequent curl versions. Our documentation mentions "+" and "-"
entries, which require more recent versions than 7.21.3. We could
perhaps clarify that in our docs, but it's probably not worth cluttering
them with restrictions of ancient curl versions.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
