url: 'ssh known host'-like checking of fingerprints of HTTPS certificates
Known fingerprints of HTTPS servers can now be configured in the
hostfingerprints section. That makes it possible to verify the identify of web
servers without configuring and trusting the CA chain.
Limitations:
* Portnumbers are ignored, just like with ordinary certificates.
* Host name matching is case sensitive.
Proper https client requires the built-in ssl from Python 2.6.
$ "$TESTDIR/hghave" ssl || exit 80
Certificates created with:
printf '.\n.\n.\n.\n.\nlocalhost\nhg@localhost\n' | \
openssl req -newkey rsa:512 -keyout priv.pem -nodes -x509 -days 9000 -out pub.pem
Can be dumped with:
openssl x509 -in pub.pem -text
