Git Bash on windows 7 behind proxy no longer working - windows

I'm on a windows 7, 32 bit box, and working behind a proxy. I just upgraded my git client (Git Bash) to Git-1.8.3-preview20130601, and all of the sudden, I'm getting the following error whenever I try to push/pull:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/User/simple_timesheets.git/:
Received HTTP code 407 from proxy after Connect
I was able to do this just fine before upgrading, and even when I tried to revert back to the last version that I think I had, I still get the error. When I run git config -l, it lists out the following variables (among others):
user.name=MyName
user.email=My#email.com
http.proxy=http://user:password#server:port
core.autocrlf=true
https.proxy=http://user:password#server:port
http.sslcainfo=/bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt
What's odd is that I seem to be able to use the Git Bash client to curl just fine
curl finance.yahoo.com --proxy http://user:password#server:port
and can even curl into a dummy https site I set up on my computer:
curl https://localhost:3000 --insecure
Any ideas what I'm missing? Thanks
EDIT:
I could be wrong, but I think there might be an issue with curl in version 1.8.3. I uninstalled all git related applications I could think of on my computer, and installed Git-1.8.0-preview20121022, ran a pull on a repo and was successful.
For giggles, I uninstalled the working version, and kept the cert file; then reinstalled version 1.8.3 to see if this didn't have anything to do with it, but I got the same error I was originally trying to resolve.
Also, after re-installing version 1.8.0, I tried to curl an https website (gmail), with the following command: curl https://www.gmail.com --proxy http://user:pass#server:port, which was successful. When I did this under 1.8.3, I got an error about code 407. The version switch seems like it solved this.

I had the same issue resolved it by using two proxy filters:
"--proxy or -x" and "--proxy-user".
curl -x http://proxyserverurl:port --proxy-user username:password -L http://url
Though what you have tried is also not wrong but might not be compatible with your curl version.
Hope this helps!

I had the same issue. Exporting the environment variables https_proxy and http_proxy resolved the issue. So I ended up adding the following lines to the .bashrc file in the home directory:
# Configure proxy settings
export https_proxy='http://myproxy.example.com:8086/'
export http_proxy='http://myproxy.example.com:8086/'

Cannot disable proxy to install Homebrew on OS X

I'm experiencing the exact same issue as mentioned in this question, but there are no answers addressing the issue.
I'm currently on my home network and trying to install Homebrew, but it fails as the terminal cannot connect to my corporate proxy. The answers in the question describe how to specify more clearly the proxy you're using to prevent this, but I do not have a proxy at all on my own wifi network. Is there a way to simply remove the proxy settings entirely? I've disabled all proxies in my System Preferences, and unset http_proxy in the shell, but it doesn't help.
In fact, there are no environment variables containing the proxy information anywhere, so I have no idea where curl is getting the information from to begin with. I've tried running the curl command with the --no-proxy flag, and even deleted the variables in my NPM config, since that's the only place I can think of that the proxy URL is currently specified. Still no luck.
Any assistance greatly appreciated!
I figured it out. Since curl is actually downloading Homebrew through Github, it was being routed through the proxy that was set in my global Git configuration, not in my environment variables. If anyone else runs into this:
git config --global --unset http.proxy
Did the trick.
Thanks, me!

remote-https is not a git command when cloning repo

On a Windows (version 10) machine, with the latest git client at the time of writing (2.18.0.windows.1), cloning repositories using HTTPS fails with error:
git: 'remote-https' is not a git command.
After a bit of research it turns out that git comes with several remote-<command> utilities, with remote-https being one of them. The error message therefore seems to tell us that `remote-https is not installed on the machine.
After a bit more research, it seems that similar problems for other developers were solved by installing curl. The machine we're dealing with does have curl (7.46.0) installed as well.
We tried reinstalling the git client a couple of times entirely from git-scm.com as well as gitforwindows.org, both resulting in the same error.
Any help or pointer to get this fixed is highly appreciated.
I just fixed the error in my build env. hope my solution is useful to you.
my env: Windows10+Jenkins+git
git version 2.18.
I just reinstall the git into windows, with a different selection during the installation:"MINTTY". after reinstall, I found the remote-https under my git install directory.
also, you need to set the jenkins env. make sure that the new git path which was included in the Jenkins env configure. if you "echo %Path%", and you can find the new git path which included the remote-https, then you are fine.

Error with git pull and git push [duplicate]

I'm using Git (and GitHub) on a daily basis and everything has been working fine and all of a sudden, I can no longer communicate with my remote GitHub repository through my Git commands. When I try to "Git pull", it gives the following error:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/snahrvar/eatibl.git/':
error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert
protocol version
So, I tested across multiple repositories, and I get the same errors on my computer. I had someone else interact with those same repositories, and it works fine for them. Prior to this error, I did an "npm install sharp" on a project and that ended up failing, and I suspect this may have messed with some SSL setting, but that's a wild guess!
Any general thoughts or guidance would be much appreciated!
If it's helpful at all, here is my environment:
Git version: 1.9.4.msysgit.2
Windows version: Windows 8.1
Updating TortoiseGit and GCM didn't help me, but updating Git itself did, as per #Frederic's advice in comments.
https://git-scm.com/download/win
To make sure the new version of Git installs properly and doesn't conflict with previous installations (it might, if you used TortoiseGit's, because it would use different folders and mess with PATH variable), remove the existing Git installation before installing the updated Git. Might also need to install with administrator rights.
You're likely running into an incompatibility with GitHub's deprecation of weak SSL encryption protocols:
Weak cryptographic standards removal notice
The solution will vary, but for Windows you likely need to upgrade the Git credential manager to 1.14.0
https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows/releases/tag/v1.14.0
If you are using Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA, updating Git to the latest version and changing the path to point to the new version solve the problem for me.
Using TortoiseGit, I did all of the other fixes/updates given for this and still no success. I found this: Can't git push/pull/fetch suddenly
My TortoiseGit settings for Git for Windows Git.exe path was pointing to C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin. I changed it to C:\Program Files\Git\bin and now it's working again.
This is what worked for me.
Install the latest version of Git from here: https://git-scm.com/download/win
In TortoiseGit, go to menu Settings → General → Git.exe Path - change it from 32-bit to 64-bit path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin → C:\Program Files\Git\bin
Updating Git was not enough in my situation. After debugging for several hours, this was my fix:
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion
tslv1.0
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion tlsv1.2
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion
tslv1.2
I had this same problem while pulling code from GitHub on my Visual Studio Code terminal. I found the advice in the previous answers useful and hacked a solution together following the steps below:
I updated Git.
I updated Git Credential Manager for Windows.
Made some changes to the registry.
Updated my Visual Studio Code installation to the latest version.
Changed my Windows path for Git from C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin. to C:\Program Files\Git\bin.
This repository was quite useful.
I hope this helps someone.
TL;DR: git config --system http.sslbackend schannel and switch off HTTPS checks for github.com in your antivirus software
I'm using the Git command line on Windows 8 x64. In addition, my antivirus software checks HTTPS traffic by default. Like other people in answering this question, I use GitHub almost daily.
Updating Git - didn't help - because I used OpenSSL (see below)
Updating credential manager - didn't help
Then I started playing with switching the SSL backend:
git config --system http.sslbackend openssl
----------------vs------------------
git config --system http.sslbackend schannel
and the antivirus software checks for SSL traffic:
OpenSSL, HTTPS checks ON: error:0407006A:rsa routines:RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1:block type is not 01
OpenSSL, HTTPS checks OFF: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
SecureChannel, HTTPS checks ON: schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate.
SecureChannel, HTTPS checks OFF: worked fine
P.S.: Instead of commandline, you can just reinstall the latest Git, selecting "Use native Windows SSL validation library".
P.P.S.: The case (3) seems to be a bug in the schannel library, because the MITM certificate my antivirus software uses is whitelisted on my machine.
On macOS, you can install the latest git via Homebrew.
Same for me with Git 1.9.5.msysgit.1 too. I tried to install https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows/releases/tag/v1.14.0, but no change.
Actually, nothing happen after installation; maybe I'm doing something wrong? (That may not help for the initial question, but for other people, yes!)
Yeah, I encountered the same issue on a pull request today and the solution was to simply update Git by downloading the latest (2.16.2) 64-bit version of Git for Windows. It was released 5 days ago, on 2018-02-20.
The comment by #andw worked for me:
Update Git version 1.9.5 to 2.15.1 using these steps:
In sourceTree, go to menu Tools → Options → Git → Use Embedded Git.
A quick solution would be git config --global http.sslVerify true, but it is not recommended as it defeats the purpose using SSL.
A second and better way is to use ssh keys rather than an SSL URL.
Steps to generate SSH keys
o Run the following command in a Git terminal (Git Bash): ssh-keygen
After running the command, the following message will appear:
Generating public/private RSA key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/h//.ssh/id_rsa):
Give the path for the key to be stored in, for example, enter the file in which to save the key (/h//.ssh/id_rsa): C:\Users\Public\my-new-ssh-key
Then give the passphrase for that key (any password of minimum 8 characters)
• Next run the following command: eval “$(ssh-agent –s)”
• Run the following command: ssh-add C:/Users/Public/my-new-ssh-key Note: use forward slash in the path to the newly created SSH key.
After that, add the contents of the file my-new-ssh-key.pub and add it in the text area for Add public key (Bitbucket, GitHub, etc.)
While connecting to a remote repository to fetch, pull, push, etc., I had the same error:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/repository.git/': error:1
407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
I just reinstalled Git 64-bit in place of 32-bit and that fixed the issue.
After installation, verify the Git path in environment variables. It should be:
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe
This is an issue with IntelliJ and RubyMine. GitHub must have disabled SSL (PCI compliance maybe?) in favor of TLS. If you open Settings in IntelliJ or RubyMine and navigate to Version Control > Git, you'll see it's using a git.exe installed under the application's path. You should download the most current version of Git and change the path in your VCS settings to point to that, e.g. C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe if you install it on Windows. Works like a charm after that.
Sometimes, this is caused by outdated msysgit which is using old ssl and not maintained any more, you can install latest git for windows, and point the git.exe path in tortoise setting to it, then this problem gone.
Git version upgrade did the trick for me. I had the version 1.9.5 and so and I upgraded to 2.21.0 on windows. Also upgrading is very easy. We don't need to uninstall the older version. Download the latest Git installer and just keep on pressing next using default options and the version will be changed to new version and all the old settings will still be working like ssh keys etc. We don't need to generate the keys again and put on github or any other repository.
Earlier my https protocol cloning was not working and giving error
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/tensorflow/models/':
error:1407742E: SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert
protocol version
Once I downloaded new version and ran the same clone command it worked without any issues.
I also came across to this problem recently
What worked for me was to revert an automatic update of git
Encountered a similar error.
On windows, Updated git on windows to the latest version.
That fixed the problem.

OS X Yosemite Curl errors

I am trying to use curl on Yosemite and I keep getting the following errors:
01-09-14 17:49:45> curl https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-manpages-2.1.0.tar.gz
curl: (51) SSL: certificate verification failed (result: 5)
I know I can add -k to the curl to make it download, but I think there is something bigger that I need to fix. The biggest issue is when trying to update Homebrew packages.
I also have this in my bash_profile
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=/usr/local/share/ca-bundle.crt
and i just downloaded the ca-bundle.crt from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
EDIT: Also on a the guest user account on my laptop the curl works fine
Turns out
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=/usr/local/share/ca-bundle.crt
was the problem for some reason. Removed that from my bash_profile and restarted a few times and everything works fine now.

curl: (7) error when i try installing Homebrew on iMac

Setup iMac OSX 10.7.4,
Hi there,
I am trying to install Homebrew on my iMac but I keep getting an error. I am following the instructions on https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/installation
I have Xcode installed and the Java Developer update which it specifies on the website.
I open Terminal and paste
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(/usr/bin/curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/master/Library/Contributions/install_homebrew.rb)"
But I keep getting the error
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host
Has anyone any suggestions?
EDIT:
Just to add I am on a college network incase its relevant
EDIT: I have also reinstalled Curl
For my specific case, I use SOCKS proxy for all traffic. So my installation command is:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL --socks5 127.0.0.1:30000 https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"
where 127.0.0.1:30000 is the SOCKS proxy.
Something is blocking your connection to github. Try accessing the url https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/master/Library/Contributions/install_homebrew.rb in your browser.
My issue was Curl not being configured to bypass my proxy.
One of they guys here in the office sorted it out for me. From what I understand the settings on curl had to be changed and not the proxy.
Hopefully this will help others in future.
I too had same problem.
The recipe for proxies should add --noproxy after curl statement
ruby -e "$(curl --noproxy -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/master/Library/Contributions/install_homebrew.rb)"
I also ran into this error and in my instance it was because my firewall was blocking or preventing outbound connections to Japan where it was trying to pull down the ruby version. Once the firewall rule was adjusted to allow the connections to that country everything worked fine.
