Configuration

• Setup proxy configurations for Git when using Git behind a corporate proxy, e.g., http://10.0.0.0:8080/.
• Assume you would like access all repositories via a corporate proxy, except certain repositories located at http://abc.com which needs to be accessed directly without going through a proxy.
• To achieve this, create a .gitconfig file at ~/ such that ~/.gitconfig file contains the following.

    [user]
        email = name@email.com
        name = name
    [http]
        proxy = http://10.0.0.0:8080/
    [https]
        proxy = https://10.0.0.0:8080/
    [http "http://abc.com/"]
        proxy =
