Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1430723
Git is unable to use HTTP(S)-SSO because of wrong check of libcurl
Last modified: 2018-04-23 07:58:21 EDT
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.
