It sounds like you have some understanding of the problem, so I suggest
pointing it out upstream (perhaps in reply to that thread).

Title:
  git send-email fails SSL certificate verification

Status in “git” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using git send-email via the Gmail SMTP servers, I get the
  following error:

  STARTTLS failed! SSL connect attempt failed with unknown error
  error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate
  verify failed at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 1241.

  The git configuration is as follows:

  [sendemail "gmail"]
      smtpencryption = tls
      smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
      smtpuser = myaccount at gmail.com
      smtpserverport = 587
