Please don’t use screenshots, they are difficult to read and copy. Use [backticks](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/psa-how-to-quote-code-with-backticks/7530).

This may be related to [this issue](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/13399). I would first try git from the command line and approve if it prompts for certificate validity.
