If an SSL client certificate is enabled (via http.sslcert or GIT_SSL_CERT), prompt for the certificate password rather than defaulting to OpenSSL's password prompt. This causes the prompt to only appear once each run. Previously, OpenSSL prompted the user *many* times, causing git to be unusable over HTTPS with client-side certificates. Note that the password is stored in memory in the clear while the program is running. This may be a security problem if git crashes and core dumps. The user is always prompted, even if the certificate is not encrypted. This should be fine; unencrypted certificates are rare and a security risk anyway.
