It looks like that variable is specific to OpenSSL. Git may use a variety of TLS libraries, and typically on Linux distributions, which cannot legally distribute both Git and OpenSSL linked together, the TLS library isn't OpenSSL at all. Personally, I've never heard of this environment variable before, so it probably wasn't chosen because nobody else had heard of it, either. It's possible if someone sent a patch to check it such a change might be accepted (or not). -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
