Elliptic curve scalar multiplication algorithm

I'm doing a prespective on supersinguar elliptic curves. I was wondering how saga calculates scalar multiplications? Does it just calculate it naively or does it use succesive doubling as default? Til is most interesting since there are well known ways of making "shortcuts" when oberating with supersingular curves, but does sage use these?
