Depending on your distribution, you may see an error similar to the following when running apt-get:

E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found.
N: Is the package apt-transport-https installed?
E: Failed to fetch https://apt.syncthing.net/dists/syncthing/InRelease

If so, please install the apt-transport-https package and try again:

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https

If you insist, you can also use the above URLs with http instead of https.
