Git error about missing ca-bundle.crt on Cygwin

If you get the following error:
$ git push -u origin master
error: error setting certificate verify locations:
  CAfile: /usr/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
   [...]
when pushing, cloning, or any other operation that requires https access, the problem is that cygwin hasn't installed the ca-certificates package. Run the cygwin installer again, and add that package; after that git should start working.
