1.25.9:
* Added ``InvalidProxyConfigurationWarning`` which is raised when
erroneously specifying an HTTPS proxy URL. urllib3 doesn't currently
support connecting to HTTPS proxies but will soon be able to
and we would like users to migrate properly without much breakage.
* Drain connection after ``PoolManager`` redirect
* Ensure ``load_verify_locations`` raises ``SSLError`` for all backends
* Rename ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` to ``HTTPSConnection``
* Allow the CA certificate data to be passed as a string
* Raise ``ValueError`` if method contains control characters
* Add ``__repr__`` to ``Timeout``
1.25.7:
* Preserve ``chunked`` parameter on retries
* Allow unset ``SERVER_SOFTWARE`` in App Engine
* Fix issue where URL fragment was sent within the request target.
* Fix issue where an empty query section in a URL would fail to parse.

* Fix issue where tilde (``~``) characters were incorrectly
percent-encoded in the path.
1.25.5:
* Add mitigation for BPO-37428 affecting Python <3.7.4 and OpenSSL 1.1.1+ which
caused certificate verification to be enabled when using ``cert_reqs=CERT_NONE``.
1.25.4:
* Propagate Retry-After header settings to subsequent retries.
* Fix edge case where Retry-After header was still respected even when
explicitly opted out of.
* Remove dependency on ``rfc3986`` for URL parsing.
* Fix issue where URLs containing invalid characters within ``Url.auth`` would
raise an exception instead of percent-encoding those characters.
* Add support for ``HTTPResponse.auto_close = False`` which makes HTTP responses
work well with BufferedReaders and other ``io`` module features.
* Percent-encode invalid characters in URL for ``HTTPConnectionPool.request()``
1.25.3:
* Change HTTPSConnection to load system CA certificates
when ca_certs, ca_cert_dir, and ssl_context are
unspecified.
* Upgrade bundled rfc3986 to v1.3.2.
1.25.2:
* Change is_ipaddress to not detect IPvFuture addresses.
* Change parse_url to percent-encode invalid characters within the
path, query, and target components.
1.25:
* Require and validate certificates by default when using HTTPS.
* Upgraded urllib3.utils.parse_url() to be RFC 3986 compliant.
* Added support for key_password for HTTPSConnectionPool to use
encrypted key_file without creating your own SSLContext object.
* Add TLSv1.3 support to CPython, pyOpenSSL, and SecureTransport SSLContext
implementations.
* Switched the default multipart header encoder from RFC 2231 to HTML 5 working draft.
* Fixed issue where OpenSSL would block if an encrypted client private key was
given and no password was given. Instead an SSLError is raised.
* Added support for Brotli content encoding. It is enabled automatically if
brotlipy package is installed which can be requested with
urllib3[brotli] extra.
* Drop ciphers using DSS key exchange from default TLS cipher suites.
Improve default ciphers when using SecureTransport.
* Implemented a more efficient HTTPResponse.__iter__() method.
1.24.2:
* Don't load system certificates by default when any other ca_certs, ca_certs_dir or
ssl_context parameters are specified.
* Remove Authorization header regardless of case when redirecting to cross-site.
* Add support for IPv6 addresses in subjectAltName section of certificates.
1.24:
Allow key_server_hostname to be specified when initializing a PoolManager to allow custom SNI to be overridden.
Test against Python 3.7 on AppVeyor.
Early-out ipv6 checks when running on App Engine.
Change ambiguous description of backoff_factor
Add ability to handle multiple Content-Encodings
Skip DNS names that can't be idna-decoded when using pyOpenSSL
Add a server_hostname parameter to HTTPSConnection which allows for overriding the SNI hostname sent in the handshake.
Drop support for EOL Python 2.6
Fixed bug where responses with header Content-Type: message/* erroneously raised HeaderParsingError, resulting in a warning being logged.
Move urllib3 to src/urllib3
1.23:
* Allow providing a list of headers to strip from requests when redirecting
to a different host. Defaults to the Authorization header. Different
headers can be set via Retry.remove_headers_on_redirect.
* Fix util.selectors._fileobj_to_fd to accept long
* Dropped Python 3.3 support.
* Put the connection back in the pool when calling stream() or read_chunked() on
a chunked HEAD response.
* Fixed pyOpenSSL-specific ssl client authentication issue when clients
attempted to auth via certificate + chain
* Add the port to the connectionpool connect print
* Don't use the uuid module to create multipart data boundaries.
* read_chunked() on a closed response returns no chunks.
* Add Python 2.6 support to contrib.securetransport
* Added support for auth info in url for SOCKS proxy
Fixed missing brackets in HTTP CONNECT when connecting to IPv6 address via IPv6 proxy.
Made the connection pool retry on SSLError. The original SSLError is available on MaxRetryError.reason.
Drain and release connection before recursing on retry/redirect. Fixes deadlocks with a blocking connectionpool.
Fixed compatibility for cookiejar.

Collection.
HTTP library with thread-safe connection pooling, file post, and more.
Highlights
* Re-use the same socket connection for multiple requests (HTTPConnectionPool
and HTTPSConnectionPool) (with optional client-side certificate
verification).
* File posting (encode_multipart_formdata).
* Built-in redirection and retries (optional).
* Supports gzip and deflate decoding.
* Thread-safe and sanity-safe.
* Works with AppEngine, gevent, and eventlib.
* Tested on Python 2.6+ and Python 3.2+, 100% unit test coverage.
* Small and easy to understand codebase perfect for extending and building
upon. For a more comprehensive solution, have a look at Requests which is
also powered by urllib3.
