This week in Nushell #303

Belatedly published Wednesday, July 9th for PRs the week ending 2025-06-13

This week, @noahfraiture made the http get and http post commands smarter. Just using http will usually choose the right verb!

Also clip copy and clip paste are moving! You'll now find them in std, rather than std-rfc.

Thanks for all the great contributions this week!
