Nice!

As Leo wrote, I think we should make sure that TLS support works
correctly, and in particular that authentication works (the
=E2=80=98set-tls-certificate-locations!=E2=80=99 binding in Guile-Git.)

(I would also have a preference for GnuTLS over mbedTLS, if we had a
choice=E2=80=A6)

Thanks for looking into this!
