I shouldn't have to do this shit..

  1. Install corkscrew

  2. Setup corkscrew auth file

     echo your_proxy_username:your_proxy_password > ~/.corkscrew_auth

  3. Add to ~/.ssh/config

     Host gitproxy
     User git
     Hostname ssh.github.com
     Port 443
     ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/corkscrew dnzwgpx2 80 %h %p ~/.corkscrew_auth
     IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

  4. Add to .git/config for your git repo

     [remote "originpx"]
     url = ssh://gitproxy/your_username/your_repo.git
     fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

  5. You should be able to now do this:

     git clone git@gitproxy:your_username/your_repo.git

Thanks to http://www.wetware.co.nz/2010/03/cant-access-github-behind-proxy-or-firewall/ for the inspiration
