I have a few github repos and they have been working fine for the last few months.
However, a few days ago I started getting a strange error when trying to push
and pull

If someone unable to solve the libcurl issue, you can apply this fix

1. Edit .git/config file under your repo directory
2. Find url= entry under section [remote "origin"]
3. Get the ssh url from github for your repository and replace the https url in the config file
4. Save config file and close it. Now you can use git.
