  19Move all of the git-remote-persistent-http* binaries to a directory
  20in PATH.

  23USAGE
  24
  25HTTPS requests can be delegated to the proxy by using the
  26"persistent-https" scheme, e.g.
  27
  28git clone persistent-https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
  29
  30Likewise, .gitconfig can be updated as follows to rewrite https urls
  31to use persistent-https:
  32
  33[url "persistent-https"]
  34        insteadof = https
  35[url "persistent-http"]
  36        insteadof = http

  53The code is written in Go (http://golang.org/) and the Go compiler is
  54required. Currently, the compiler must be built and installed from tip
  55of source, in order to include a fix in the reverse http proxy:
