[PATCH v3] http: add support for specifying an SSL cipher list

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Teach git about a new option, "http.sslCipherList", which permits one to
specify a list of ciphers to use when negotiating SSL connections.  The
setting can be overwridden by the GIT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST environment
variable.

This addresses (I hope!) comments from Junio and Ray, and also resolves some
whitespace issues present in the earlier version of the patch.
