I'll queue your patch for my next pull request ... just wondering: Did
you run into any real issue here? AFAIK we're not running any related
test on Windows in the CI, so there should not be any big difference?
Hi,
HTTPS connections don't work unless the server certificate can be
validated. Binaries with mingw-w64-x86_64-curl won't find the common CA
certificates, so server certificates cannot be validated and HTTPS
connections fail. With mingw-w64-x86_64-curl-winssl, the installed CA
certificates from Windows are used and HTTPS works fine.
The difference is therefore for any protocol which uses SSL. I assume
that there is no difference for other protocols which are supported by
curl, but did not test this.
