Good find!
But, are you sure the 10.8.5 (-55179.13) version isn't in some sense a later, patched maintenance branch compared to a 10.9 (-55471) that might have been frozen earlier? The release dates are very close (~2013-10-03 for 10.8.5; ~2013-10-22 for 10.9), and they might have already been separate branches.
(Is there a 10.8.4 version to compare?)
- alex1 13y agoGood point. I just checked that file ever since it was open-sourced in 10.8 and it stays exactly the same throughout all of 10.8.x (10.8 - 10.8.5) and only changes in 10.9. (You can check for yourself here: http://opensource.apple.com/ http://opensource.apple.com/) It doesn't seem like what you said is the case here but obviously we're still missing changesets that may have been committed between 10.8.5 (Security-55179.13) and 10.9 (Security-55471). It'd be really interesting to do a git-blame on that file. EDIT: Nevermind, that file wasn't open-sourced in 10.8. It's actually really old. (Look for directories starting with libsecurity_ssl in pre-10.8 OS X versions.) Didn't find anything particularly interesting in the old versions though.
