I don't think this is really fix, it's more plastering over the

It defaulted to SSL_VERIFY_NONE before Net::SMTP::SSL was updated, and
the behavior hasn't changed now. The new version simply asks us to be
explicit about SSL_VERIFY_NONE, so we are aware about it.
We as the Git developers, yes. But your change makes sure users are
_not_ aware about it. There's a long history of software ignoring SSL
certificates by default, I don't think we should cast in stone that we
don't want SSL certificate verification.
For what it's worth, after upgrading here, I got this error at the
server side:
Jul 26 10:15:41 foo.example.com postfix/smtpd[7736]: warning: TLS
library problem: 7736:error:14094418:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:tlsv1
alert unknown ca:s3_pkt.c:1256:SSL alert number 48:
This is because my postfix doesn't have a ca bundle configured but all
other mail clients have been fine before.
With the original patch here I could continue.
I'd really love to see an option to set this to none in the .gitconfig,
but agree with the principle that it should be one by default and the
setting should over ride that.
All the best
Col
PS I'm mainly posting this such that people searching the intertubes for
the postfix error above and git-send-email will match at least this
message and find the fix/workaround :)
