Q - I installed git to get the latest version of Angular. When I tried to run
git clone https://github.com/angular/angular-phonecat.git
I got failed to connect to github 443 error
I even tried
git clone git://github.com/angular/angular-phonecat.git
That gave me failed to connect no error message.
I am behind my company firewall. I can not see my proxy details when I go to control panel->Internet Options -> connections -> LAN setting. IT guys are not sharing proxy information with me. I do not know what to do ??
I finally managed to do it. I will update the procedure that I had taken in order to Just wanted to compile all the steps that I did to get it to work
Well I did following steps
Google the error
Got to SO Links(here, here) which suggested the same thing, that I have to update the Git Config for proxy setting
Damn, can not see proxy information from control panel. IT guys must have hidden it. I can not even change the setting to not to use proxy.
Found this wonderful tutorial of finding which proxy your are connected to
Updated the http.proxy key in git config by following command
git config --global http.proxy http[s]://userName:password@proxyaddress:port
Error - could not resolve proxy some@proxyaddress:port. It turned out my password had @ symbol in it.
Encode @ in your password to %40, because git splits the proxy setting by @
If your userName is a email address, which has @, also encode it to %40. (see this answer)
git config --global http.proxy http[s]://userName(encoded):password(encoded)@proxyaddress:port
Baam ! It worked !
Note - I just wanted to answer this question for souls like me, who would come looking for answer on SO :D
