The example which demonstrates merging of map configuration parameters on this post on the Anaconda Blog is confusing, which (I think) is because it is incorrect.
Based on this:
the merged settings will be
proxy_servers: https: https://prod-proxy
with no
http
key defined.
I think the ~/.conda/condarc.d/proxies.yml
file should have one http
key and one https
key, rather than two https
keys.
