git through proxy

README.md

1. install socat

2. add git-proxy to your path (e.g. cp git-proxy ~/bin/)

3. make git-proxy executable (e.g. chmod u+x git-proxy)

4. add ssh config ssh_config entries to your ssh config (samples for github)

5. edit the proxy address in git-proxy

6. edit the proxy address in ssh_config

7. add git configuration

   needed for ssh urls that require a login ([email protected]:someone/something.git)

   git config --global core.gitproxy git-proxy

   needed for git urls that don't require a login (git://github.com/someone/something.git)

   git config --global url.https://github.com/.insteadOf git://github.com/

8. you can now clone the github repo with the git address
