How to set up a Git proxy on Windows

You may experience slow connection speeds when using Git in Windows. This is usually because Git cannot connect directly to the remote repository and requires a proxy server to be set up. This article will explain how to set up a Git proxy on Windows.

Step 1: Check the existing proxy settings

Before you start setting up the Git proxy, you need to determine whether your Windows system has already set up a proxy. If your Windows system has a proxy set up, Git will follow the same proxy settings. You can check it with the following command:

netsh winhttp show proxy

If the output shows "Direct access (no proxy server)", it means that your system does not have a proxy set. Otherwise, the detailed information of the proxy server will be displayed, including the proxy type, IP address and port number of the proxy server, etc.

Step 2: Configure the global proxy

If you need to access foreign code hosting platforms such as github across borders when using Git, then you need to configure the global proxy. You can use the following command to set up Git's global proxy, replacing the proxy server address and port number with your own:

git config --global http.proxy http://代理服务器地址:端口号
git config --global https.proxy https://代理服务器地址:端口号

If you do not need a proxy to access the local Git server, then you can use the following command to cancel Global proxy settings:

git config --global --unset http.proxy
git config --global --unset https.proxy

Step 3: Configure a single repository proxy

In addition to the global proxy, Git also supports setting a proxy for a single repository. This allows the proxy to be configured for a specific repository without affecting other repositories. You can use the following command to configure the proxy for a single repository, replacing the proxy server address and port number with your own:

cd 存储库目录
git config http.proxy http://代理服务器地址:端口号
git config https.proxy https://代理服务器地址:端口号

If you want to cancel the proxy settings configured for an individual repository, you can use the following command:

cd 存储库目录
git config --unset http.proxy
git config --unset https.proxy

Summary

The above are the steps to set up a proxy using Git under Windows system. Through the above configuration, you can access the remote Git repository more quickly and stably, allowing you to complete your development work more efficiently.
