Re: git ca cert problems

Hi,

I change the title to a better one.

The output I get without setting any environment variable is the
following:

address@hidden:~$ ltrace -f -e getenv bash -c 'git clone 
https://github.com/elm-lang/elm-compiler' 2>&1 |grep SSL
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY")       = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_CERT")            = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_KEY")             = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_CAPATH")          = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_CAINFO")          = 
"/home/alexvong1995/.guix-profile"...
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_CERT_PASSWORD_PROTECTED") = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_VERSION")         = nil
[pid 6906] sh->getenv("GIT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST")     = nil
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/elm-lang/elm-compiler/': Problem 
with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)


Printing the environemt variable GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY gives:

address@hidden:~$ echo $GIT_SSL_CAINFO
/home/alexvong1995/.guix-profile/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt:/home/alexvong1995/.guix-profile/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt


Is the problem related to having more than one ca cert files?
