AI Summary

  • Fixed progress bar update rate
  • Progress bar now reflects total requests

New Features

  • Binary size optimization
  • Progress bar accuracy fix

Full Release Notes

- reduced binary size by incorporating `strip` into the CD pipeline
- fixed bug where the progress bar was being incremented too infrequently

The progress bar was only being incremented once per call to `scanner::make_requests`, however, make_requests makes a request for each url sent to it plus one for each extension specified with `-x`.  For example, a scan that uses a wordlist with 1000 items and specifies 1 extension makes 2000 requests (one for each word, and one for each word + extension).  Each progress bar only got incremented by the number of items in the wordlist.
