title: How can I enable https for cURL request to api.github?
body: <p>I want to search for github repositories (github API v3) by curl request with https at git bash (v1.9.2 on Windows). </p>
  
  <p>My test request looks like this: </p>
  
  <p><code>$ curl -H 'Accept: application/vnd.github.v3.text-match+json' \ https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=jquery/jquery</code> (<a href="https://developer.github.com/v3/search/#highlighting-repository-search-results" rel="nofollow">see API doku</a>)</p>
  
  <p>I get this response: </p>
  
  <p><code>curl: (1) Protocol https not supported or disabeld in libcurl</code></p>
  
  <p>Can anybody give me an advice for configuration? For addition, it'll be helpful for me to get some technical infos behind. I'm still learning.</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: </p>
  
  <p>I update my Question into "How do I enable https for cURL using GIT Bash (v1.9.2) on Windows and where can I find <code>./configure</code> file to add <code>--with-ssl</code> attribute?"</p>
  
  <p>Best,
  Ronn</p>
