commit 080f2c092795382fe77591f8a41e19172ebead26
Author: наб <nabijaczleweli@nabijaczleweli.xyz>
Date:   Wed May 13 21:35:36 2026 +0200

    apt-transport-https(1): document host-specific SSLCert, SSLKey, Verify-Host with host:: instead of ::host
    
    Empirically, SSLCert and SSLKey need to be specified in the reverse order,
    and only
            Acquire::https::deb.beaverlabs.net {
                    SSLCert ".../cert.pem";
                    SSLKey  ".../pkey.pem";
            };
    , not the documented order, works
