"cannot open git-upload-pack" - Cloning project in Eclipse IDE


I'm making a clone of my project that is in Github in the Eclipse IDE. After entering all the access data, the following error occurs:

https://github.com/"COMPANY NAME"/"PROJECTNAME".git: cannot open git-upload-pack

I already added the http.sslVerify = false - did not work

I configured the RSA key - did not work either

I use: Windows 10 / Java 7 / Eclipse Luna Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2)

Solution

  • Try this answer to a related question on Salesforce Stack Exchange. It worked for me.

    To elaborate, GitHub recently (as of February 8, 2018) removed support for a number of outdated cryptographic standards. See this announcement for more details on that.

    Unfortunately, this list includes TLSv1, which is the default TLS implementation used by Java 7. I encountered the same problem since I was interfacing with GitHub via EGit on a fairly ancient Eclipse build still using Java 7, and sure enough, it was explicitly set to use TLS1.0. I followed the recommended steps to force my Java to use TLS1.1 and 1.2, and the problem was magically solved.
