Feature request: Support 'https' links

Open saivinob opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Zsync files with 'https' are failing with error '...could not read control file from URL'. Changing the 'https' to 'http' fixes the issue i.e., we are able to download from the link address.

Currently affecting zsync downloads of Ubuntu isos (from cdimage.ubuntu.com). See bug report https://pad.lv/1927807.

Request to add 'https' support.

Support for HTTPS should be a default option. How is zsync to be taken serious on the modern internet without support for TLS/SSL? This effectively makes zsync useless for most people.
