I have to use http proxy to connect to Git server. I am able to set it through Git Bash and use it too through the following command:
git config --global htt
Another approach would be to go to your user folder c:\users\ (in my case c:\users\danielj) and create a file called .gitconfig.
c:\users\
c:\users\danielj
.gitconfig
paste the following:
[user] name = [user] email = [http] sslVerify = false proxy = "http://%40:#@:" [https] sslVerify = false
