Answer 1

First I have installed git version 2.16. When I type the git version in the terminal, the output is 1.9. So I uninstalled the old version. And check the git version again, it show me 2.16. The issue resolved, The git works.

Also I have done the following step early, But I don't think this is effective.

git config --global --unset http.sslVersion
git config --global --add http.sslVersion tlsv1.2
