So mercurial aborts when you want to interact with a repository that uses a self-signed certificate, as is the case for my own little mercurial repo exposed over https.

NOTE: this is obviously insecure and you must verify the ssl cert’s fingerprint is correct. If you roll your own server, log into the server and get the fingerprint from the cert file itself, not over https since there could be a man in the middle.
