How do I enable https support in libcurl?

Question

When I try to $ brew update I\'m getting the error:

error: Protocol https not supported or disabled in libcurl while accessing https://github.co

This worked for me:

Re-install curl and install it using the following commands (after unpacked):

$ ./configure --with-darwinssl    
$ make    
$ make test    
$ sudo make install

When you run the command "curl --version" you'll notice that the https protocol is now present under "protocols".
