FWIW, this is not about OpenSSL for SHA1; it is about the underlying
library used by curl to do SSL (gnutls vs openssl). And the problem is
that curl linked against gnutls seems _broken_, so Anand has asked if
Debian can ship a binary git linked against a curl that is linked
against openssl (and the answer is probably "no, Debian people think
that is wrong").
