Hi all, I've been trying without success to clone a git repository over https. I've got a complicated situation because I have a proxy which only allows http/https and the server I'm trying to connect to has an invalid certificate. I'm using git 1.5.6.4 and curl 7.18.1 compiled on x86_64. Ok, so I have created the following ~/.curlrc: netrc proxytunnel insecure proxy = http://proxyserver.com:8080 proxy-user = proxyuser:proxypassword accompanied by the following ~/.netrc: machine remoteserver.com login remoteuser password remotepassword and the following ~/.gitconfig: [user] name = My Name email = my.em@xxxxxx [http] sslVerify = false All above files permissions are set to 600 and I have also set the environment variables http_proxy, https_proxy and all_proxy (one never knows) to: http://proxyuser:proxypassword@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080 Ok, now lets try: $ wget -q --no-check-certificate https://remoteuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/.git/HEAD && cat HEAD && rm HEAD ref: refs/heads/master $ curl https://remoteuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/.git/HEAD ref: refs/heads/master $ git clone https://remoteuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/.git/ Initialized empty Git repository in /home/user/.git/ error: Proxy requires authorization! warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout. Both wget and curl work, but git won't! Any clues?
