How to Use git proxy

Sometimes, you must use a proxy to access the external network. In this case, you need to use git to download the code. What should I do? The answer is tsocks.

Http://sourceforge.net/projects/tsocks/files/tsocks/1.8%20beta%205/:

Tar xzvfTsockS-1.8beta5.tar.gz

CDTsockS-1.8

./Configure-Prefix =/usr; Make; make install

 

The next step is to modify the/etc/tsocks. conf configuration file and configure it according to the actual network conditions.

Server =... # Your local proxy server

Server_type = 5 # socks version, use 5 as default

Server_port = 1080 # socks proxy Port

Local = 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 # internal network; will not use proxy when accessing this Subnet

After the configuration, you can use git to download the file:

Tsocks git clone git: // gitorious.org/vaapi/mplayer.git mplayer

 

However, if you use HTTP, you only need to configure the proxy before downloading it.

Export http_proxy = server_address: server_port

Git clone http://gitorious.org/vaapi/mplayer.git mplayer
