Git commands ignoring proxy on Windows
Today I had to configure some http and https proxies to access some client's repositories.
The commands I had to use are the followings:
git config --global http.proxy <proxy_url>
git config --global https.proxy <proxy_url>
After some coding, I decided to swap to another proyect and when I tried to push a commit an error ocurred.
fatal: unable to access 'https://gitlab.com/<other_repo>.git/': Could not resolve proxy: <proxy_url>
So, I did what every ordinary dev would do
git config http.proxy ""
No success.
Ordinary dev's second step: Google -> StackOverflow.
Recommended solutions:
set no_proxy=gitlab.com
git config --add remote.origin.proxy ""
No success (in windows).
After diging deeper, inspecting the global .gitconfig file, I found a workaround.
In the root of the no proxy project, you will find the .git folder. Inside it, there is a file called config. Just open it and add these lines:
[http]
proxy =
[https]
proxy =
Success.
Edit: if you just want to clone a repo when you have the proxy set, you don't have, ofc, the .git folder. So, the command to use is the following.
git -c http.proxy= clone <url>
