This is a tangent, but the patch made me notice [*1*] that a user
cannot build Git without libcurl support if curl is installed on the
system, with something like:

        $ ./configure NO_CURL=NoThanks

I do not know if that is a problem (it certainly is NOT a new
problem introduced by your change).

Anyway, will queue.

Thanks.

[Footnote]

*1* The updated code does not have any branch based on $NO_CURL the
    original used to have, even though it does branch on
    $NO_OPENSSL, which is why I got curious.
