Export your shell environment for http proxy use

export http_proxy="http://hostname:port" or save it to your shell profile. (i.e. ~/.bash_rc)

export http_proxy='http://example.proxy_name.com:80'
For multi-user installs, use sudo -E to preserve the proxy settings in your environment:

Setting git to use a proxy
