From ff740016d1a162039b0b0bd242ce1d39f58877fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pat Thoyts Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2015 23:59:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] remote-http(s): Support SOCKS proxies With this patch we properly support SOCKS proxies, configured e.g. like this: git config http.proxy socks5://192.168.67.1:32767 Without this patch, Git mistakenly tries to use SOCKS proxies as if they were HTTP proxies, resulting in a error message like: fatal: unable to access 'http://.../': Proxy CONNECT aborted This patch was required to work behind a faulty AP and scraped from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15227130/#15228479 and guarded with an appropriate cURL version check by Johannes Schindelin.
