Issue with https with git

description

When trying to clone the repository i get the following error

Cloning into 'G:\Eclipse.NET'...
error: libcurl was built with SSL disabled, https: not supported! while accessing
fatal: HTTP request failed

I've searched google all night and still couldn't find any solutions that worked.

I believe curl/libcurl (what the Git client uses under the hood) was compiled without HTTPS support. I'd recommend reinstalling Git with a version that supports it.

Which Git client are you using? From the error it seems to be something with the client.

it doesn't matter what client I use. It all gives the same error. Git bash gives me the error. The Tortiose GIT gives teh error, Git for windows gives that error, mysgit gives that error. Even the GUI git client from Github gives that error...

Well which one would that be. I've tried for different installs and about 3 different versions of those installs. Just saying install one that has it supported does not help me.

I've always installed it from http://git-scm.org/ without any problems.

Went and downloaded from the link you said. Siad the latest version is 1.7.12 but when i click download it downloads 1.7.11..

With no prevail it still gives me that damn error. I'm about to give up on git.

But it don't matter I gave up on git. It pisses me off.
