I'm stuck behind a firewall so have to use https to access my github repository. It's a new one I'm creating & am using cygwin 1.7.7 on XP. I've tried setting the remote to https://[email protected]/oharab/ExcelANT.git, but pushing prompts for a password, but doesn't do anything once I've entered it. https://oharab:github.com/oharab/ExcelANT.git and cloning the empty repo from scratch but each time it gives me the same error error: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed while accessing https://github.com/oharab/ExcelANT.git/info/refs
Turning on GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 gives me
* About to connect() to github.com port 443 (#0)

Is this a problem with my firewall, cygwin or what?

Posted too soon!
I hadn't set the http proxy in the git config, however it's an ISA server that needs NTLM authentication, not basic, so unless anyone knows how to force git to use NTLM, I'm scuppered! B.
