[10:06:15] <gutsytechster> Hello all, Can someone answer my query https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/7416#issuecomment-597798467? I've been wondering about it for some time now.
[14:04:30] <biryukov> Hi, git has windows secure channel support. Could we implement something similar for pip?
[14:06:38] <biryukov> I have seen a project, called pip-system-certs, that achieves this with a couple of lines (live patching using autowrap). https://gitlab.com/alelec/pip-system-certs/-/tree/master/pip_system_certs
[15:49:46] <pradyunsg> biryukov: "use system-provided SSL certificates" -- is there any reason this can't be done with --cert option in pip?
