I ended up with https with my protocol because I'd used the command
git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://
some time ago, because I was unable to download the openchemistry repos on
my computer(Not sure but it could be because of the restrictions on
internet here)
This command applied to all git protocols. Seeing as this was causing this
issue, I cleared the file ~/.gitconfig, and added the following lines to it
(source)
<http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2013-November/029765.html>
[url "http://paraview.org/ParaView.git";]
insteadOf = git://paraview.org/ParaView.git
[url "http://vtk.org/VTK.git";]
insteadOf = git://vtk.org/VTK.git
[url "http://paraview.org/VisItBridge.git";]
insteadOf = git://paraview.org/VisItBridge.git
[url "http://public.kitware.com/protobuf.git";]
insteadOf = git://public.kitware.com/protobuf.git
[url "http://paraview.org/QtTesting.git";]
insteadOf = git://paraview.org/QtTesting.git
[url "http://paraview.org/IceT.git";]
insteadOf = git://paraview.org/IceT.git
[url "http://github.com/OpenChemistry";]
insteadOf = git://github.com/OpenChemistry
[url "http://github.com/Kitware/VTK.git";]
insteadOf = git://github.com/Kitware/VTK.git
So that https protocol didn't apply to all commands, especially for QtTesting
However, the certificate issue shouldn't be there, should it?
