Yeah, I agree that if we can drop the conditional totally, we should. If we do need to make it conditional, I think there was a preference for shifting to checking the actual option constants, like: #ifdef CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE ...ok, we have it... #endif The rest of your comments all seemed quite reasonable to me. As a general feature, IMHO speed-limiting is best done outside of application-level tools like Git (and instead done via proxies or kernel network config). But since we are not building the feature ourselves, but rather just plugging our config to curl's feature, I don't have any problem with it here. -Peff
