Cargo alternative registry auth #3139
Conversation
This RFC adds authorization for alternative registries, taking in to account the recent developments in HTTP-based registries (RFC2789).
This seems reasonable.
The RFC should explicitly state that authorization headers are only provided for https:// URLs, and that under no circumstances will cargo ever pass an authorization header over plaintext HTTP.
Also, the RFC suggests that there's nowhere to pass this information for git, but if you're using git via https, it'd be possible to pass the authorization header. We may or may not want to support that. But at the very least, the RFC should document this possibility, and then state a concrete proposal for how we want to handle this case.
