So once the problem (a) is fixed, if the user has OpenSSL config then the user doesn't need configuration from setopt() side? That makes it sound like you do not need to patch us at all, but there must be something else going on... > On git's side we just need to expose the proper options for setopt > configuration.

I am guessing that "error:" may come from these easy_setopt() calls, but the "fatal: HTTP request failed" come from us, much later in the callpath when we actually make http request. Between these two times, aren't we throwing user data at the cURL library and possibly over the wire to the remote side (with a SSL configuration that is different from what the user intended to use), no? That does not sound like a "managed by cURL" solution to me. Shouldn't we notice the first error and abort without doing any further damage? >> Overall, I think it is looking good.
