[O] Bug: git clone https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git fails with fatal: unable to access 'https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git/': server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none [9.1.7 (release_9.1.7-523-g594b2d @ /home/brentg/emacs_lisp_imported/org-mode/org-mode/lisp/)]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is not a bug with org-mode but seems to be a configuration
problem with the website and/or the underlying git server there:

As of Sun Aug 19 08:27:11 PDT 2018 the clone operation on my Ubuntu
18.04 laptop fails with:

address@hidden:/tmp/org-mode.direct$ git clone 
https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git
Cloning into 'org-mode'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git/': server 
certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt 
CRLfile: none
address@hidden:/tmp/org-mode.direct$

I've updated my hosts CA's via the instructions found at
https://stackoverflow.com/a/35824116/257924 to no avail.

I checked my system time is constantly up to date, so it is not a NTP
issue.

I noted that even browsing to the website at https://orgmode.org
required me to add a certificate exception to my browser.

I originally did a git pull in order to get my local installed copy of
org-mode up to date, and got the same error, so I'm reporting the 'git
clone' command above into a /tmp directory just to be sure it is not
due to something I've fouled up in my normal directory.
