Tail over HTTP(S).
Use cases
When access to log file(s) is shared via HTTP, or when only the last part of a large file should be retrieved without transfering it all.
Look & feel
Mimics GNU tail (at least as of GNU coreutils 8.21), with hints of curl where needed (ex: CA certificates).
Differences:
There is no line notion, only bytes, therefor there is no -n nor –max-unchanged-stats options. Fetches 1024 bytes by default, instead of 10 lines.
Follow is obviously done by name, not by descriptor.
File accesses being more expensive than with typical tail, quadratic delay is available by specifying –sleep-max-interval.
