Subject: [PATCH v4 3/4] imap_send: setup_curl: retreive credentials if not set in config file

```
Up to this point, the curl mode only supported getting the username
and password from the gitconfig file while the legacy mode could also
fetch them using the credential API.

Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] imap-send: use curl by default when possible
Message-ID: <ee4cb3a1-3219-411f-cc05-6874da202b32@morey-chaisemartin.com>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/ee4cb3a1-3219-411f-cc05-6874da202b32%40morey-chaisemartin.com

```
Set curl as the runtime default when it is available.
When linked against older curl versions (< 7_34_0) or without curl,
use the legacy imap implementation.

The goal is to validate feature parity between the legacy and
the curl implementation, deprecate the legacy implementation
later on and in the long term, hopefully drop it altogether.

Subject: [PATCH v4 1/4] imap-send: return with error if curl failed

```
curl_append_msgs_to_imap always returned 0, whether curl failed or not.
Return a proper status so git imap-send will exit with an error code
if something wrong happened.

A slight tangent.  This is in line with the way in which we do
conditional compilation to work with different versions of libCurl,
but we recently had discussion on modernizing these version based
conditional compilation to use feature based one in another topic.
We may want to switch to

	#if defined(CURLE_LOGIN_DENIED)
		...

(cf.
https://public-inbox.org/git/cover.1502462884.git.tgc@jupiterrise.com/
the entire thread).

No need to change _this_ patch in this series, but something to keep
in mind planning for a future follow-up work to clean things up.

Thanks.

As my copy of GCC seemed to be worried about readers getting
confused by the if/else cascade, I'd place an extra pair of braces
around this, i.e.

	if (cred.username) {
		if (res == CURLE_OK)
			credential_approve(&cred);
		else /* or "else if DENIED" */
			credential_reject(&cred);
	}
	credential_clear(&cred);

while queuing this patch.
