+enable-ssl-automatically
+------------------------
+
+* On Linux and FreeBSD platforms, when building CMake itself from source and
+ not using a system-provided libcurl, OpenSSL is now used by default if it is
+ found on the system. This enables SSL/TLS support for commands supporting
+ network communication via ``https``, such as :command:`file(DOWNLOAD)`,
+ :command:`file(UPLOAD)`, and :command:`ctest_submit`.
