[Bug 1691462] Re: git gnutls_handshake() failed: Error in the push function

[Daniel Murray]

This happened for me when I had https_proxy etc set with a https
protocol (e.g. set to https://localhost:3128) instead of just http.

Title:
  git gnutls_handshake() failed: Error in the push function

Status in git package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When using git with https:// behind a corporate proxy it fails often
  with the error message:

  gnutls_handshake() failed: Error in the push function.

  For example:

  git clone -q --mirror https://github.com/JuliaDiff/DualNumbers.jl.git /home/user/.julia/v0.4/.cache/DualNumbers
  fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/JuliaDiff/DualNumbers.jl.git/': gnutls_handshake() failed: Error in the push function.

  After repeating the same command several times it finally works.
  Sometimes git work even the first time, but this is seldom. Usually it
  works when I repeat the command 2 or three times.

  System: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS amd64, kernel 4.4.0-78-generic
  git: 1:2.7.4-0ubuntu1.1
  curl: 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.2
  libcurl3-gnutls: 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.2
