ChangeLog: Rewrite vars-auto-detect, adhere to EasyRSA-Advanced.md
Additional:
Caveat: The default '$PWD/pki/vars' file is forbidden to change either
        EASYRSA or EASYRSA_PKI, which are both implied by default.

NOTICE: vars-auto-detect no longer searches easyrsa program directory.

Easy-RSA 3 ChangeLog
3.2.0 (TBD)
3.1.7 (2023-10-13)
* Rewrite vars-auto-detect, adhere to EasyRSA-Advanced.md (#1029)
Under the hood, this is a considerable change but there are no user
noticable differences. With the exception of:
Caveat: The default '$PWD/pki/vars' file is forbidden to change either
EASYRSA or EASYRSA_PKI, which are both implied by default.
NOTICE: vars-auto-detect no longer searches 'easyrsa' program directory.
* EasyRSA-Advanced.md: Correct vars-auto-detect hierarchy (#1029)
* gen-crl: preserve existing crl.pem ownership+mode (#1020)
* New command: make-vars - Print vars.example (here-doc) to stdout (#1024)
* show-expire: Calculate cert. expire seconds from DB date (#1023)
* Forbid "default vars in the default PKI" for all commands (#1021)
REVERTED in #1029 above.
* Update OpenSSL to 3.1.2
3.1.6 (2023-07-18)
* New commands: 'inline' and 'x509-eku' (#993)
inline: Build an inline file for a commonName
x509-eku: Extract X509v3 extended key usage from a certificate
* Expose serial-check, display-dn, display-san and default-san to
command line. (#980) (Debugging functions, which remain undocumented)
* Expand default status to include vars-file and CA status (#973)
* sign-req: Allow the CSR DN-field order to be preserved (#970)
3.1.5 (2023-06-10)
* Build Update: script now supports signing and verifying
* Automate support-file creation (Free packaging) (#964)
* build-ca: New command option 'raw-ca', abbrevation: 'raw' (#963)
This 'raw' method, is the most reliable way to build a CA,
with a password, without writing the CA password to a temp-file.
This option completely replaces both methods below:
* build-ca: New option --ca-via-stdin, use SSL -pass* argument 'stdin' (#959)
Option '--ca-via-stdin' offers no more security than standard method.
Easy-RSA version 3.1.4 ONLY.
* build-ca: Replace password temp-files with file-descriptors (#955)
Using file-descriptors does not work in Windows.
Easy-RSA version 3.1.3 ONLY.
3.1.4 (2023-05-23)
* build-ca: New option --ca-via-stdin, use SSL -pass* argument 'stdin' (#959)
* build-ca: Revert manual CA password method to temp-files (#959)
Supersedes #955
Release v3.1.3 was fatally flawed, it would fail to build a CA under Windows.
Release v3.1.4 is specifically a bugfix ONLY, to resolve the Windows problem.
See the following commits for further details:
5d7ad1306d5ebf1588aef77eb3445e70cf5b4ebc
