From b8ac923010484908d8426cb8ded5ad7e8c21a7f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Martin=20Storsj=C3=B6?= Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2009 23:43:08 +0800 Subject: Add an option for using any HTTP authentication scheme, not only basic MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This adds the configuration option http.authAny (overridable with the environment variable GIT_HTTP_AUTH_ANY), for instructing curl to allow any HTTP authentication scheme, not only basic (which sends the password in plaintext). When this is enabled, curl has to do double requests most of the time, in order to discover which HTTP authentication method to use, which lowers the performance slightly. Therefore this isn't enabled by default. One example of another authentication scheme to use is digest, which doesn't send the password in plaintext, but uses a challenge-response mechanism instead. Using digest authentication in practice requires at least curl 7.18.1, due to bugs in the digest handling in earlier versions of curl.
