A handful of options to configure SSL when talking to proxies have
been added.
* js/https-proxy-config:
http: add environment variable support for HTTPS proxies
http: add client cert support for HTTPS proxies
|
|
Add 4 environment variables that can be used to configure the proxy
cert, proxy ssl key, the proxy cert password protected flag, and the
CA info for the proxy.
Documentation for the options was also updated.

Git supports performing connections to HTTPS proxies, but we don't
support doing mutual authentication with them (through TLS).
Add the necessary options to be able to send a client certificate to
the HTTPS proxy.
A client certificate can provide an alternative way of authentication
instead of using 'ProxyAuthorization' or other more common methods of
authentication. Libcurl supports this functionality already, so changes
are somewhat minimal. The feature is guarded by the first available
libcurl version that supports these options.
4 configuration options are added and documented, cert, key, cert
password protected and CA info. The CA info should be used to specify a
different CA path to validate the HTTPS proxy cert.

Doc updates.
* bc/misconception-doc:
docs: mention when increasing http.postBuffer is valuable
doc: dissuade users from trying to ignore tracked files
|

Users in a wide variety of situations find themselves with HTTP push
problems. Oftentimes these issues are due to antivirus software,
filtering proxies, or other man-in-the-middle situations; other times,
they are due to simple unreliability of the network.
However, a common solution to HTTP push problems found online is to
increase http.postBuffer. This works for none of the aforementioned
situations and is only useful in a small, highly restricted number of
cases: essentially, when the connection does not properly support
HTTP/1.1.
Document when raising this value is appropriate and what it actually
does, and discourage people from using it as a general solution for push
problems, since it is not effective there.

In many languages, the adverb with the root "actual" means "at the
present time." However, this usage is considered dated or even archaic
in English, and for referring to events occurring at the present time,
we usually prefer "currently" or "presently". "Actually" is commonly
used in modern English only for the meaning of "in fact" or to express a
contrast with what is expected.
Since the documentation refers to the available options at the present
time (that is, at the time of writing) instead of drawing a contrast,
let's switch to "currently," which both is commonly used and sounds less
formal than "presently."

The "http.version" configuration variable can be used with recent
enough cURL library to force the version of HTTP used to talk when
fetching and pushing.
* fc/http-version:
http: add support selecting http version
