  • While I didn't actually install the patch/MR, from looking at it, it's clear that all it does is change HTTP to HTTPS in the generated drupal.org links. I did verify that the HTTPS version of the links work, so I'm going to mark this as RTBC.

    Note: Anticipating the "why bother" response... As browsers get more strict about wanting to always use HTTPS, and also increasing strictness with cross-origin links (HTTP and HTTPS versions of a link are considered different origins) it should be standard to use HTTPS everywhere (or at least everywhere it's possible). It's a small change, easy to apply, with no bad side effects that I can think of. Please consider applying it to the next release.
