Known issues in the OpenText Dimensions CM Git Client latest release:

- If you use the dimensionshttps or dimensionshttpscac Dimensions CM Git Client protocol with Dimensions CM 14.7 server, you need to update Git configuration files in the git-core folder.

  1. Open the git-core folder.

     Depending on your operating system and the installation path, the location of the git-core folder can be %GIT_HOME%\mingw64\libexec\git-core or /usr/libexec/git-core.

  2. In the the git-core folder, open the start-git-client and git-dm files and find the following line:

     JAVA_OPTS="-Dapple.awt.UIElement=true -Xmx1024m ${DEBUG_JAVA_OPTS}

  3. Replace the line with the following:

     TLS_JAVA_OPTS="-Djdk.tls.client.protocols=TLSv1.3"

     JAVA_OPTS="-Dapple.awt.UIElement=true -Xmx1024m ${DEBUG_JAVA_OPTS} ${TLS_JAVA_OPTS}"
