I had the same issue : behind a corporate proxy with auth at work, I couldn't have pip work, as well as Sublime Text 2 (well, it worked with custom setup of my proxy settings). For pip (and I'll try that on git), I solved it installing cntlm proxy. It was very simple to configure :

1. Edit cntlm.ini
2. Edit "Username", "Domain", "Password" fields
3. Add a "Proxy" line, with your proxy settings : server:port
4. Make sure the line "NoProxy" integrates "localhost" (like that by default)
5. Note the default port : 3128
6. Save and that's it.

To test that works, just launch a new command line tool, and try :

pip install django --proxy=localhost:3128

That worked for me. Hope this will help you.
