Three ways to set up proxy in git windows

With the widespread application of Git on Windows platforms, how to set up the proxy of the Git client has become a very practical issue. This article will introduce how to set up the Git client's proxy in a Windows environment and provide some additional tips.

1. Use Git commands to set the proxy

The Git command line provides commands for setting the proxy. The specific commands are as follows:

git config --global http.proxy http://proxyuser:proxypwd@proxyaddress:proxyport

Among them, proxyuser is the user name of the proxy server. , proxypwd is the password of the proxy server, proxyaddress is the address of the proxy server, and proxyport is the port number of the proxy server.

If the proxy server does not require user name and password verification, the command can be simplified as:

git config --global http.proxy http://proxyaddress:proxyport

2. Use Git GUI to set up the proxy

For users who like to use graphical interfaces , the Git GUI also provides the option to set a proxy.

After opening the Git GUI, select "Options" in the "Edit" menu, select the "Network" tab in the "Options" dialog box, fill in the agent-related information completely, and click the "OK" button The setup is now complete.

3. Use environment variables to set the proxy

In addition to the above two methods, you can also use system environment variables to set the proxy. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Right-click the "Computer" icon on the desktop and select "Properties".
2. In the "System" window, select "Advanced system settings".
3. In the "System Properties" window, select the "Environment Variables" button.
4. In the "Environment Variables" window, click the "New" button and add a system variable named "HTTP_PROXY". Fill in the proxy address and port number in the variable values. If the proxy requires a username and password, fill in the format as "http://user:password@proxyaddress:port".
5. Click the "OK" button, close all dialog boxes and reopen the Git client to complete the settings.

4. Notes

1. If the proxy server forwards through the proxy, you need to change the proxy address to the forwarding server address, and note that the port number must also be changed accordingly.

2. If the proxy server uses https protocol, you need to change http.proxy to https.proxy.

3. Since the Git client caches the proxy settings, if you need to modify the proxy settings, you need to use the command line or Git GUI to clear the cache: git config --global --unset-all http.proxy .

4. Develop good proxy usage habits and ensure the security of proxy settings to avoid information leakage or security vulnerabilities.

The above are the steps and precautions for setting up the Git client agent in a Windows environment. I hope it will be helpful to you.
