After you installed SoC Embedded Design Suite (SOCEDS) and ARM® Development Studio DS-5™ embedded software development tool, you can use the git_clone.sh shell script come together with the SOCEDS installation to clone a linux-socfpga repository into your hard drive.
However, in ACDS 15.1, there is some issue with the SSL certificates when you trying to clone the git linux-socfpga repository.
The error message will be like below:
$ ./git_clone.sh
Cloning into \'linux-socfpga\'...
fatal: unable to access \'https://github.com/altera-opensource/linux-socfpga.git/\': error setting certificate verify locations:
CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
CApath: none
bash: pushd: linux-socfpga: No such file or directory
bash: pushd: linux-socfpga: No such file or directory
There is workaround to avoid this error and get the repository cloned into your hard drive. To avoid the error you can disable the SSL certificate checking by entering below command line in SOCEDS command shell:
$ export GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=1
and then running the git clone command.
This issue is scheduled to be fixed in future version of SOCEDS.
