doesn't support https connection about git HOT 11 CLOSED

By using http://curl.haxx.se/gknw.net/7.40.0/dist-w64/curl-7.40.0-devel-mingw64.7z
libcurl.dll to replace libcurl-4.dll in mingw64, the https connection works now,
and this version if very minimal. That's a advantage.

I do not really want to pull random binaries from all sorts of places. We use Pacman for a reason.

@dscho how do I know which curl version currently using?

from git.

$ curl https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/raw/0160e8e2a1c128153c7d1dc3df2050acbc96a6e6/compat/win32/git-wrapper.c

So the curl doesn't work at all

@lygstate have you looked at the referenced file? I found that under certain (as yet unclear) circumstances, that ca-bundle.crt file is empty, but that reinstalling via pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-ca-certificates helps. See also git-for-windows/build-extra@1047cf2.

@dscho Can you spend sometime to testing does mingw-git support for https connection, I am still failed, but the msys-git works fine.

Can you spend sometime to testing

Sorry, no, I have spent all of the past three hours trying to address shortcomings in issue reports and commit messages. The tasks I actually had to take care of have waited patiently, but I have to address them now.

My, my, aren't you the lucky one. The crashes in HTTP/HTTPS/FTP were caused by enabling nedmalloc, as predicted by @kblees. Dumb idiot me followed the request to enable it nevertheless.

@lygstate you should be able to test the fix yourself by pulling and rebuilding. The relevant commit is 5ccd51f

from git.

Now it's fixed, I've test it.
