You are right, we are using a bare URL (without a username component). With username encoded in URL everything works just fine. But it's generally wrong to pass creds in URL (in my opinion) and security policy of my employer prohibits doing such thing. Anyway, as you said libcurl needs valid (not NULL) username/password to do GSS-Negotiate, so there is nothing wrong if I set empty username/password combination when git prompts for creds. Even more, there is no other way to let libcurl to use GSS-Negotiate without username in URL. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
