SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

1) Open Git Bash and run the command if you want to completely disable SSL verification.

git config --global http.sslVerify false

Note : But in this way, you may hit attacks like man in the middle attacks.

2) To disable the SSL for only one command, do the following:

git -c http.sslVerify=false clone https://domain.com/path/to/git

3) Better solution is to do this:

4) Edit the Git config text file located at:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig

In the [http] block, add an option to disable sslVerify. It would look like this:

[http]
    sslVerify = false
    sslCAinfo = /bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt

That did the trick.

NOTE: This disables SSL verification and is not recommended as a long term solution.
