git-remote-persistent-https
The git-remote-persistent-https binary speeds up SSL operations
by running a daemon job (git-remote-persistent-https--proxy) that
keeps a connection open to a server.
PRE-BUILT BINARIES
Darwin amd64:
https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-remote-persistent-https/darwin_amd64.tar.gz
Linux amd64:

INSTALLING
Move all of the git-remote-persistent-http* binaries to a directory
in PATH.
USAGE
HTTPS requests can be delegated to the proxy by using the
"persistent-https" scheme, e.g.
git clone persistent-https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
Likewise, .gitconfig can be updated as follows to rewrite https urls
to use persistent-https:
[url "persistent-https"]
insteadof = https
[url "persistent-http"]
insteadof = http
You may also want to allow the use of the persistent-https helper for
submodule URLs (since any https URLs pointing to submodules will be
rewritten, and Git's out-of-the-box defaults forbid submodules from
using unknown remote helpers):
[protocol "persistent-https"]
allow = always
[protocol "persistent-http"]
allow = always

# BUILDING FROM SOURCE
#####################################################################
LOCATION
The source is available in the contrib/persistent-https directory of
the Git source repository. The Git source repository is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/
https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
PREREQUISITES
The code is written in Go (http://golang.org/) and the Go compiler is
required. Currently, the compiler must be built and installed from tip
of source, in order to include a fix in the reverse http proxy:

BUILDING
Run "make" to build the binaries. See the section on
INSTALLING above.
