Subject: Cygwin git should suggest cloning with HTTPS, not HTTP
Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2022 16:36:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56a9fe9f-5f5f-b344-cb5e-f7d6ea5b10c1@hamishmb.com> (raw)

Hi there,

I recently noticed that the git repo pages (for example 
https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/2048-cli.git;a=summary) 
suggest cloning with HTTP, instead of HTTPS.

HTTPS is available, so this seems like a more secure option to offer 
instead of HTTP.
