<https://github.com/sigmavirus24/requests-toolbelt/issues/46>`_ on the
project's page.
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- A naive implemenation of a thread pool is now included in the toolbelt. See
the docs in ``docs/threading.rst`` or on `Read The Docs
<https://toolbelt.readthedocs.org>`_.
- The ``StreamingIterator`` now accepts files (such as ``sys.stdin``) without
a specific length and will properly stream them.
- The ``MultipartEncoder`` now accepts exactly the same format of fields as
requests' ``files`` parameter does. In other words, you can now also pass in
extra headers to add to a part in the body. You can also now specify a
custom ``Content-Type`` for a part.
- An implementation of HTTP Digest Authentication for Proxies is now included.
- A transport adapter that allows a user to specify a specific Certificate
Fingerprint is now included in the toolbelt.
- A transport adapter that simplifies how users specify socket options is now
included.
- A transport adapter that simplifies how users can specify TCP Keep-Alive
options is now included in the toolbelt.
- Deprecated functions from ``requests.utils`` are now included and
maintained.
- An authentication tool that allows users to specify how to authenticate to
several different domains at once is now included.
- A function to save streamed responses to disk by analyzing the
``Content-Disposition`` header is now included in the toolbelt.
Fixed Bugs
~~~~~~~~~~
- The ``MultipartEncoder`` will now allow users to upload files larger than
4GB on 32-bit systems.

values.
