git access using SSL certificates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have configured a bare Git repository over HTTPS and client needs to have a SSL certificate-key to access the repository. I am able to access this repository using Firefox by loading client certificate in the Firefox, but it is not working with git command line client. 

I tried setting http.sslCert and http.sslKey configuration options, but it is not working. Following were steps in accessing the repository. Am I missing something in my configuration? Any pointers on how to share git using SSL certificates would be really helpful. 

Thanks,
Shantanu. 


* Try git-clone using HTTPS without client certs 
{{{
mercury:tempgit-ssh2 shantanu$ git clone https://condor-node2.lab.ac.uab.edu/git/fifa2010 --verbose
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/shantanu/tempgit-ssh2/fifa2010/.git/
error: Empty reply from server while accessing https://condor-node2.lab.ac.uab.edu/git/fifa2010/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed
}}}

* Try git-clone using ssh
{{{
mercury:tempgit-ssh2 shantanu$ git clone ssh://ssp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/srv/gitpubrepos/fifa2010 --verbose
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/shantanu/tempgit-ssh2/fifa2010/.git/

* Change git remote url 
{{{
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git remote rm origin
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git remote add origin https://condor-node2.lab.ac.uab.edu/git/fifa2010 
}}}

* Try git-pull with HTTPS without certs 
{{{
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git pull
error: Empty reply from server while accessing https://condor-node2.lab.ac.uab.edu/git/fifa2010/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed
}}}

* Try git-pull using certificates 
{{{
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git config http.sslCert ~/Desktop/certs/usercerts/bob-svn/ssp.crt 
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git config http.sslKey ~/Desktop/certs/usercerts/bob-svn/ssp.key 
mercury:fifa2010 shantanu$ git pull
error: Empty reply from server while accessing https://condor-node2.lab.ac.uab.edu/git/fifa2010/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed
