For git itself everything is curl only now as far as I know. That's new as of hours after you sent this. Git turns on .netrc for doing 401 http auth. I wonder if curl will consult .netrc for 407 proxy credentials as well? Somebody would have to read code and/or try it. -- Darrin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
