Git, Windows and proxies?

Question

git

I'm trying to install git on windows. Followed this guide . Stuck on step #5.

ssh -T [email protected]

Gives an error
shh: github.com: no address associated with name

What could be the problem? I myself suspect that the proxy (traffic inspector) is to blame. Inet in the office is distributed only through it and there are no other opportunities to commit.

Answer 1

Show command output
ping github.com

Answer 2

You can try this:
Create a .gitconfig file in your home directory and
enter your proxy
[http]
proxy = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx

Answer 3

Here is what GitHub itself recommends to solve this problem - help.github.com/firewalls-and-proxies
