adding/using remote with invalid SSL cert impossible

Opened this issue · 0 comments

When I try to add a remote with an expired SSL certificate, add-remote fails with the error message, that the URL wasn't "recognized as a known repository type". The fact that the SSL certificate was rejected is only obvious after debugging and looking at the inner exception.

There is no way to override the validity check.

I consider it nice when a program either asks me whether it should ignore an invalid certificate or at least gives me the option to ignore the problem through a command line parameter. OpenWrap does neither (that goes for both 1.0 and 2.0).

I would appreciate the addition of a parameter like "-ignoreInvalidSSLCert" either as a global parameter (like "-debug") or for the commands that contact remote repositories.
