Hello there,

I'm using git 2.7.4 from a guix profile, and here is my current environment:

guix package -p ~/opt/guix-build-system --search-paths
warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument
export PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/bin:/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/sbin"
export XDG_DATA_DIRS="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/share"
export GUIX_GTK3_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/lib/gtk-3.0"
export INFOPATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/share/info"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/lib/pkgconfig"
export GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/lib/guile/2.0/ccache"
export C_INCLUDE_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/include"
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/include"
export LIBRARY_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/lib"
export ACLOCAL_PATH="/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/share/aclocal"

which env returns:

which env
/home/lin/opt/guix-build-system/bin/env

Now, with git clone example over HTTPS:

git clone --branch gn-latest https://github.com/genenetwork/guix-bioinformatics
Cloning into 'guix-bioinformatics'...
fatal: unable to access
'https://github.com/genenetwork/guix-bioinformatics/': server
certificate verification failed. CAfile: none CRLfile: none

The system git does not present such an error.

What could be wrong with my setup? Missing certificates?

At the moment, I've installed the nss-certs package hoping it would be
a workaround as these are Mozilla certs, but to no avail.

Thanks and regards,

Dennis.
