+### 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.
