RE: Problems with Windows + schannel + http.sslCert

Please ignore. Further research suggests that this is an issue with curl on Windows not yet supporting client auth with the schannel backend. Sorry for the noise.

Hi folks,

I'm trying to use SSL client auth on Windows. My git installation currently lists only schannel as the supported backend. The problem is that this always gives me "fatal: refusing to work with credential missing host field". I can see from my server at the other end that a connection was attempted and then terminated unexpectedly. However, I'm not sure what git is expecting me to do to make this work. I suspect it is an schannel vs. openssl difference, because the same credentials work fine on a linux machine. Is there something I can do to dig deeper and understand why this is failing?

Thanks, -- Ragesh.
