Commit 5841520b makes it impossible to connect to github from behind my company's firewall.

Commit 5841520b makes it impossible to connect to github from behind my company's firewall.

I'm running CYGWIN_NT-6.1 and the default git version 2.5.3 complains with a fatal error when trying to git pull:

$ /bin/git --version git version 2.5.3 $ /bin/git pull fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/gargle/french/': Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to github.com:443

Taking the sources of git 2.6.1. and compiling with commit 5841520b in http.c reverted gives me a working git.

My http.c now looks like:

 466     if (curl_http_proxy) {
 467         curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXY, curl_http_proxy);
 468 #if LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM >= 0x070a07
 469         curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY);
 470 #endif
 471     }

And it works:

$ git --version git version 2.6.1 $ git pull Already up-to-date.

Greetings,

Johan
