Re: FYI: git issues with libcurl 8.0/1 HTTPS push

The downside with this approach is that you make it build-time. Since
libcurl 8.2.x is binary compatible with the previous versions, users
could easily upgrade to a newer libcurl without rebuilding git and
then unnecessarily have the avoid-h2 code still used.

The ideal approach would do the check in run-time to avoid that.

True.  I however suspect that the ship has already sailed for our
use of libcurl with how git-curl-compat.h uses LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM
for other things already.  A binary of Git built with older libcurl
versions would have compiled out certain features and would still
work with newer libcurl.

Thanks.
