error setting certificate file: /usr/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt error on c-f Windows Azure CI

[hadim]

When pixi is used as a conda_install_tool on c-f, I found an error during the Windows CI when the source used is a git repo:

Error: 
  × Failed to run git command: Git clone failed for source: Cloning into '/d/
  │ bld/src_cache/KataGo.git'...
  │ fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo.git/':
  │ error setting certificate file: /usr/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt

I can't reproduce it since I don't have access to a Windows machine.

See the original feedstock where the issue has been raised: conda-forge/katago-feedstock#11

See also this minimal reproducing recipe on staged-recipes: conda-forge/staged-recipes#28906

Note that the issue disappears when conda_install_tool is set to micromamba (making me think pixi is the culprit here).

After a small investigation suggested by jaimergp at conda-forge/katago-feedstock#12, using GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true resolves the issue, so it seems the error is due to a wrong certificate.

It does not seem to be related to pixi but to the c-f infra instead since it works when using a Windows GH runner without any of the c-f infra setup.
