Description of problem: The NTLM authentication is commonly used in mixed Linux/Windows environments. RHEL-7 libcurl supports only NTLMv1, which is known to be insecure. On the other hand, bringing NTLMv2 into RHEL-7 libcurl could be disruptive and break backward compatibility. A possible solution for RHEL customers that need git with NTLMv2 authentication is RHSCL. git successfully authenticates with NTLMv2 if the httpd24-libcurl library is preloaded via LD_PRELOAD. Customers now ask for a more enterprise solution. I propose to link RHSCL git against RHSCL libcurl to address this request. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): git-1.9.4-6.el7 Steps to Reproduce: 1. git clone over NTLMv2-authenticated HTTP proxy
