Getting Git to work with a proxy server - fails with “Request timed out”

Question

How do I get Git to use a proxy server?

I need to check out code from a Git server, but it shows \"Request timed out\" every time. How do I get around this?

Answer 1

here is the proxy setting

git config --global http.proxy http://<username>:<pass>@<ip>:<port>
git config --global https.proxy http://<username>:<pass>@<ip>:<port>
