I have a remote Git repository with HTTPS access using self-signed SSL certificate. VS2015 works fine with it over HTTPS, but VS2017 RC does not, please see the screenshot:
SSL certificate is installed on my Window 10 system. The repository URL is https://git.developernote.com/examples.git.

Just for clarification are you connecting VSTS in VS2017RC?

not Visual Studio Team Services, but my own Git repository hosted on a Linux server.

Hi ShamanSoft,
Based on the following link, we could install the latest version of git over the Visual Studio copy (VS2017 does not use the git in your PATH).
Download the 32-bit version of git here:
Run the file you downloaded. You’ll see a popup window that asks where you’d like to unpack git to, enter this folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\TeamFoundation\Team Explorer\Git

Hello, Oscar!
you can easily try to clone my repository in VS2017 with this link https://git.developernote.com/examples.git and see if it reports the same error about the certificate. This repository is private and has login and password that I cannot share with you, but I guess that VS2017 is unable to send HTTPS requests at all, so login and password do not matter.
The only problem is that you should install my certificate first (that can be theoretically unsafe for you), so probably it is not quite good experiment. But just in case, you can get the certificate from https://gitweb.developernote.com/.
