'cannot open git-upload-pack' error in Eclipse when cloning or pushing git repository

Adding the option insides Eclipse immediately resolves the issue. To add the option

1. open preferences via application menu Window => Preferences (or on OSX Eclipse => Settings).
2. Navigate to Team => Git => Configuration
3. click Add entry..., then put http.sslVerify in the key box and false in the value box.

Seems to be a valid solution for Eclipse 4.4 (Luna), 4.5.x (Mars) and 4.6.x (Neon) on different Operating systems.
