Git through a Proxy. What is causing the 407 error when cloning?

Question

I\'m trying to use Git through a proxy. I\'ve tried setting parameters \'git config --global\' in a lot of ways but always without success when cloning repositories.

The following solved the problem for me

1. Rightclick on the git folder-> TortoiseGit->Settings->Network
2. Enable Proxy Server and input proxy, port, user, password
