[Python-apps-team] Bug#839098: mercurial: Uses http_proxy environment variable even for https connections

[Josh Triplett]

Package: mercurial
Version: 3.9.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Mercurial uses the http_proxy environment variable as the proxy for all
connections, including https connections.  Mercurial should instead use
the https_proxy environment variable as the proxy for https connections.
