+### Native Git Failures
+
+Unfortunately, sometime in early 2013 RedHat changed their SSL certificate such that cloning from/pushing to Gitblit Express over https fails due to an SNI (server name indication) TLS alert.  There is no known workaround for native git and https.
+
+However, if your git client is JGit-based, like Eclipse/EGit, then you can workaround this problem and happily push/clone using https and OpenShift.
