Description
We're having trouble utilizing keybase's encrypted git repos
```
git-remote-keybase error: (1) API network error: Get "https://api-0.core.keybaseapi.com/_/api/1.0/team/get.json?lookup_only=1&team=redacted": EOF (error 1601)

More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html
curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and

Research direction
Start by reproducing the git-remote-keybase clone failure and the curl certificate error against api-0.core.keybaseapi.com. Trace how git-remote-keybase handles the Keybase API request and certificate verification; done means identifying the cause and confirming that encrypted repository cloning succeeds without weakening TLS verification.
