Sure, and it's great that I still get most Git even if I don't have libcurl. But without support for cloning https remotes there's a significant hole in Git functionality... I grok that Git doesn't want to re-invent the wheel and that libcurl is convenient. I just wonder if anyone knows of another wheel, that doesn't come attached to an entire tractor-trailer, that could be used instead :). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
