"SSL host could not be verified" error
Whenever I try to connect the git via eclipse mars, I entered the bitbucket URL as the instructions in this website.
http://crunchify.com/how-to-configure-bitbucket-git-repository-in-you-eclipse/
The problem occurred in the step 9 which is in the website link. Then when I click Next, the following errors occur.
.git is missing at end of repository URL // I tried it but SSL verification error occurred again.) SSL host could not be verified. (set http.sslVerify=false in Git configuration)
How can I solve that SSL host issue and pass to the step 10 which is the website link?
Answer
In my experience it seems that it happens under Windows with certain configuration of Eclipse (not sure which ones).
Go in Eclipse Preferences -> Team -> Git -> Configuration, and click "Add Entry..."
Put "http.sslVerify" as key and "false" as value (no quotes).
In the "clone repository" window put your user / password (don't leave "git", since there is no ssh-key configured under Windows, I suppose).
If needed, in the Git Repository view, check the properties of your new repository and double check that remote.origin.url has your username rather than "git" (otherwise during authentication you'll have a greyed out username textbox with "git" written in it).
