I think this was re-posted a 100th time because the author [1] released version 0.9.6 [2] like three hours ago. And to save you guys a click here is the list of (significant?) changes. - Added Python 3 as a dependency for Homebrew installations to ensure some of the newer HTTP features work out of the box for macOS users (starting with HTTPie 0.9.4.). - Added the ability to unset a request header with Header:, and send an empty value with Header;. - Added --default-scheme <URL_SCHEME> to enable things like $ alias https='http --default-scheme=https. - Added -I as a shortcut for --ignore-stdin. - Added fish shell completion (located in extras/httpie-completion.fish in the Github repo). - Updated requests to 2.10.0 so that SOCKS support can be added via pip install requests[socks]. - Changed the default JSON Accept header from application/json to application/json, /. - Changed the pre-processing of request HTTP headers so that any leading and trailing whitespace is removed. And please Mr. Roztočil stop posting your project here so frequently, there is a limited number of links in this website that get to the front page, and it is annoying to see duplicated content so often. If there is people unaware of your project by now, it is probably people that are not involved in anything related with HTTP debugging, and people that already know the project can easily go to GitHub and see the changelog by themselves, I certainly didn't understand why was this posted again after I started looking for a reason, then found that version 0.9.6 was released :-( EDIT: Maybe I should blame the +40 accounts who upvoted this. EDIT2: Re-organized paragraphs to display the changelog before my (irrelevant?) rant about the duplicated submission.

  To be fair he didn't post the project itself in over 4 years. His other submissions related to this project links directly to a new release, which seems ok. You're right that this submission was unnecessary as there's been plenty of recent general discussions about the project. It would have been better to post a link directly to the new release/changelog and indicate that in the title. That'd probably also lead to fewer upvotes as other HN users would know that this is a feature release, not a new project.

  Thanks, we updated the link from the homepage.

  The community obviously thought it was interesting despite being well known. Maybe today's users are not the same as the ones who saw it last week.
