Git on Windows- SSL certificate error

Question

There are many question related to this problem and much more answers. None of them works. I have PortableGit and configured to use certificate from specific store. If I specify wrong file path, I get eror: "error setting certificate verify locations: CAfile" As soon as I specify correct path, this error is not shown.

We are using our local CA authority. Local GitHub server is third in certificate chain. I added github server's certificate to certificate store. git clone stil does not work. Where is the problem?

Answer 1

CA store needs all certificates in certificate chain to be present. I added every certificate in certificate chain to certificate store. Note: Global gitconfig is located at "C:\\PortableApps\\GitPortable\\mingw64\\etc\\gitconfig" (please adjust "C:\\PortableApps\\GitPortable\\" to your system). I added following line to my local gitconfig

[http]
sslCAinfo = C:/PortableApps/GitPortable/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt

Local gitconfig is located at

~/.gitconfig

(c:\\Users\\xxx.gitconfig)
