This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script. richard pushed a commit to branch geckoview-96.0.3-11.0-1 in repository tor-browser. commit deaf3389a75bd45dfbd56594273872a67337273b Author: Mike Perry <mikeperry-git@torproject.org> AuthorDate: Wed Aug 27 15:19:10 2014 -0700 Bug 12974: Disable NTLM and Negotiate HTTP Auth This is technically an embargoed Mozilla bug, so I probably shouldn't provide too many details.
