So I am having issues with git in RubyMine. When I try to clone from a repository for example: git clone https://www.github.com/zai11/exampleRepo.git; I get an error error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version.
From what I understand this happens because github dropped weak cryptography algorithms, causing older git clients to stop working (including mine which is v1.9.4).
As a workaround, I have tried installing an updated git client (v2.19.0) and using that. I went into File > Settings > Version Control > Git and set the path to executable field to C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe and clicked apply, however after going into the terminal and running git version it still returns git version 1.9.4.msysgit.2
Make sure you have unsinstalled Git first, and do a disk-wide search for any other git.exe.
You also, for testing, use and uncompress the latest Git for Windows portable archive PortableGit-2.19.0-64-bit.7z.exe anywhere you want.
Then setup a simplified path in a CMD session.
set PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem
set GIT_HOME=C:\Path\to\Git
set PATH=%GIT_HOME%;%GIT_HOME%\bin;%GIT_HOME%\usr\bin;%GIT_HOME%\mingw64\bin;%PATH%
Add any other path you would need
Try again your command in that environment.
