Managing Git branches can be a complex task, especially when it comes to merging them. Fortunately, there are several Git GUI (Graphical User Interface) clients that can simplify the process and make it more user-friendly. In this article, we’ll explore three of the best Git GUI clients that can help you easily merge Git branches.
I had tried to push changes to project using the https-URL, but it failed with an error:
error setting certificate verify locations: CAfile: C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/libexec/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
The problem occurred on Windows 7 x64, with Git-2.15.0-32. You have to fix the path to ca-bundle.crt using absolute path with back-slashes. Run this command in GitBash to do it:
git config --global http.sslcainfo "C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/usr/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
