When pulling from github, I get an SSL error.  How can I fix this?

-bash-4.1$ git --version
git version
1.7.11.4


-bash-4.1$ git remote -v
origin https
://github.com/gotm-model/code.git (fetch)
origin https
://github.com/gotm-model/code.git (push)


error
: SSL connect error while accessing https://github.com/gotm-model/code.git/info/refs
fatal
: HTTP request failed

Thanks,
Carsten

Yes, still a problem this morning. Any ideas how to diagnose the root cause?

Thanks,

not for me - but seems to be a very old version of git you use - but I don't see why this should be related to ssl


Thanks,

Dear Karsten et al,

this seems to be a major issue on older systems. I could manually upgrade my git

-bash-4.1$ git --version
git version 2.16.GIT

but that does not solve the problem.

-bash-4.1$ git pull
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/gotm-model/code.git/': SSL connect error

The problem is the system’s curl implementation Newer git’s seem to be able to request a
certain cipher with the http.sslCipherList variable… but I haven’t managed yet

Thanks Adolf

We are working on a new stable release so take some care with the repository for now.

I asked the github people and they pointed me to the cause of the issue, explained in

https://githubengineering.com/crypto-removal-notice/

Since Feb 22, older TLS implementations have been disabled.

Cheers,
Carsten
