It does look like curl is treating localhost:1080 as a regular http proxy. What version of libcurl do you have? Is there anything in your environment that might be causing it to override the configured proxy setting (e.g., an http_proxy or https_proxy environment variable)? > As you can see git connect to my socks proxy (Connected to 127.0.0.1 > (127.0.0.1) port 1080) but seems to send the http request directly > instead of a socks command. So it does'nt work :( Yeah, that definitely looks like the problem. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
