RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
*Git* cannot be used with HTTP or HTTPS and SSO *Git* provides the `http.delegation` configuration variable, which corresponds to the cURL `--delegation` parameter, for use when delegation of Kerberos tickets is required. However, *Git* included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 contains irrelevant checks of the version of the *libcurl* library while required fixes are provided by a different version of *libcurl* on RHEL 6 systems. As a consqeuence, using *Git* with Single Sign-On on HTTP or HTTPS connections fails. To work around this problem, use the *Git* version provided by the _rh-git29_ Software Collection from Red Hat Software Collections.

Description Petr Stodulka 2017-03-09 12:26:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
The last build git-1.7.1-8.el6 contains irrelevant checks of version of libcurl library. These were relevant for upstream versions, however the required fixes are provided in different version of libcurl on RHEL 6 systems. According to this problem, the new http.delegation option (provided in the last build of git) doesn't work and prints warning message when it is used instead of any other functionality.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. git config --global http.delegation policy
2. git clone http://<your-repository>

Actual results:
warning about old libcurl that doesn't support delegation option


Expected results:
set delegation parameter for libcurl correctly.
