TL; DR
Git on Windows stops connecting to github due to mysterious SSL protocol errors. Halp!
Problem
I am developing Windows using a private GitHub repository for version control. The first time I load my system, I can access the remote repo no problems - pull, push, fetchetc. Everything is working fine.
After some amount of time (*), this stops and I get the following error:
fatal: unable to access https://github.com/our-team/private-repo.git/ ': Unknown SSL protocol error due to github.com:443
(*) The amount of time seems variable - I witnessed only an hour or two, up to the whole day. Usually it seems to be a problem after returning from the system to sleep, but I do not know if this is caused by a time delay or by a sleeping system.
Validation via cURL, I get
λ curl -v "https://github.com/our-team/private-repo.git/"
* Trying 192.30.252.130...
* Connected to github.com (192.30.252.130) port 443 (#0)
* successfully set certificate verify locations:
* CAfile: C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\curl-ca-bundle.crt
CApath: none
* TLSv1.0, TLS handshake, Client hello (1):
* Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to github.com:443
* Closing connection 0
curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to github.com:443
Using set GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1c git pullshows similar information. Sometimes it succeeds (see below), but most of the time it fails.
Additional notes
Here is a little sporadic in nature - sometimes I can get requests for success, but as soon as it starts to explode, it usually breaks into 9 out of 10 requests or more.
A successful cURL request looks like this:
