GitHub Windows client behind proxy

by

Add these entries to your ‘.gitconfig’ file in your user directory (go to %USERPROFILE%):

[http]
    proxy = http://<proxy address>:<proxy port>

[https]
    proxy = https://<proxy address>:<proxy port>

And if you don’t want to store your password in plaintext, I would use a local proxy forwarder like CNTLM which allows you to direct all traffic through it and can store the passwords hashed.

Unlike the original question, if you don’t care if your password is in plain text add these:

[http]
    proxy = http://<username>:<password>@<proxy address>:<proxy port>

[https]
    proxy = https://<username>:<password>@<proxy address>:<proxy port>
