I already posted this issue as a question to StackOverflow <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26097307/how-to-reconnect-to-my-git-repository-on-gitlab-from-netbeans-ide-8-and-jenkins>, but I did not get a response there yet. I also filed an issue on NetBeans.org <https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247761>.
Something seems to have gone wrong with my NetBeans git set-up. I am using NetBeans IDE 8.0.1 on Windows 8.1 and I have a private git repository hosted on GitLab.com. But ever since GitLab updated to version 7.3.1 <(https://about.gitlab.com/2014/09/24/gitlab-7-dot-3-dot-1-released/> I am unable to connect to the git repository from NetBeans. It does not matter if I fetch, pull or push, I get the same response: "Cannot connect to the remote repository at https://gitlab.com/<group-name>/<project-name>.git" (group name and project name omitted for privacy reasons) I found similar (older) problems, but I don't think it is the same problem. I think my problem is related to the release of GitLab Community Edition 7.3.1, though I cannot see what causes it exactly. >From this bug report on NetBeans community <https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232612> someone suggests clicking "passive mode" would solve the issue, but I don't know where to find this passive mode. On googling passive mode I think it has something to do with FTP, but I'm using the https option and not ftps option for connecting to the git repository, so I don't think this really applies to my situation (correct me if I'm wrong). This other bug report on NetBeans community <https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=221557> has a suggestion that I need to add the following line to my git config file: [http] sslVerify=false I added it both to my .git/config file in my project folder and to my .gitconfig file in my user folder, but this did not solve the problem. Also cloning the git repository again from GitLab.com did not solve the issue. In fact, I get the same error response (as mentioned above) when I try to clone. I can still connect to git and do all my git commands if I use Git Bash for Windows. So I'll use that for now, but I would rather also be able to use the Git Repository Browser in NetBeans. I am also running Jenkins with automatic builds and testing, which is also connected to the same git repository on GitLab.com. I had not checked its log for a while, but it also fails to fetch. So the problem is not limited to NetBeans alone since Jenkins is also affected.
