Uploaded to Debian experimental as "8.13.0~rc-1~exp2", it's available for all
supported architectures:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=curl&suite=experimental

We intend to consistently upload the RC releases to Debian experimental from
now on, sometimes uploading them to Debian unstable too, depending on where we
are in our release cycle.

If you use Debian unstable (might work for Debian testing too), you can enable
the experimental repository and install it, Debian experimental is an extra
repository, not a full release.

If you want to try it out on a container, this command should work for this and
future releases (even if we upload it to unstable):
$ podman run debian:experimental /bin/bash -c 'apt install --update -t experimental -y curl && curl --version'

Same if you use docker:
$ docker run debian:experimental /bin/bash -c 'apt install --update -t experimental -y curl && curl --version'

For other distributors of curl, note that a small patch was needed to address a
test failure on test1022: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/16626

Debian's CI is now running against the package, and if any issues are detected,
they will show up at
https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?experimental=1&package=curl

"Experimental: No excuse for curl" means so far so good.

Cheers,
