[Feature REQ]Add CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST to git for allowing custom cipher usages

Mon, 06 Apr 2015 05:28:15 -0700 

Hi,

    We know git uses cURL to grab https repositories from the Internet. Nowadays
    the SSL-enabled git repos are getting more and more, especially self-hosted
    ones.

    Some of the websites including those enabled by CloudFlare, however, does
    not support common encryption ciphers provided by cURL. For example,
    TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 will not be support by default in
    both cURL or git, and it is not a common cipher, Debian/RHEL does not even
    support it by default (but Fedora does, maybe others, didn't test).

    Is it possible to add this feature (this opt is set by calling by curl
    --cipher cipher_name) to git, allowing custom cipher usage?

    Thank you very much.
