I just encountered this issue with Ubuntu 15.04 64-bit while trying to clone nuget: https://nuget.codeplex.com/workitem/8339

I tried building the latest git binary and included an additional debug option in "http.c" that allowed me to set the protocol version using an environment option: CURLOPT_SSLVERSION=1 git clone ... where 1 = TLSv1, 2 = SSLv2, 3 = SSLv3. I tried each protocol but the result was the same. The knock-on bug here is that git ought not to delete what it has fetched - in this case more than 250MB of data. I did try to build the latest gnutls but it needs a very recent version of libnettle which has the "rsa_decrypt_tr" function. I stopped at that point since I don't want to get into dependency and library version issues.
