   Addresses #20807 - updating URLs from HTTP to HTTPS where necessary. Due to the age of the Bitcoin codebase there are a number of legacy URLs with http:// that support https:// - I used a script to locate all of them and then visited each one to ensure they are available behind a secure domain. A copy of the script I used can be found on the issue #20807

    Concept ACK, but please squash the commits and remove the changes to the following files/directories:

    • contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus: seems to be unrelated whitespace changes
    • depends/patches/: modifying patches will break them
    • src/leveldb/: this is a dependency and change should be submitted upstream
    • src/univalue/: this is a dependency and change should be submitted upstream

    Thanks for addressing this! :)

    Thanks for your contribution. However to move things along I’m going to fix this up and consolidate it with some other changes. Your commit will still be attributed to you.
