You know the dulwich client code as well as anyone here, Augie ;) http_proxy support is a good idea, but it's slightly nontrivial as you'd be tunneling the git TCP protocol, not HTTP, through the HTTP proxy. I haven't thought through how well that would work, but I'm sure other git people have, and a quick search suggests that it's at least possible: http://www.emilsit.net/blog/archives/how-to-use-the-git-protocol-through-a-http-connect-proxy/
Another related feature that's been in the back of my mind for a while is smart HTTP client support, where using a proxy should be more straightforward :) On Thu, Sep 9, 2010 at 08:02, Jelmer Vernooij <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, 2010-09-09 at 09:42 -0500, Augie Fackler wrote: > > (+dulwich-users) > > > > On Sep 9, 2010, at 4:15 AM, Frog Brave wrote: > > > > > I am trying to use hg-git to get access to some public git repos. hg > > > clone command does not work (I get a message about the absence of an > > > answer from the other host) and I suppose the problem is I am behind a > > > proxy. > > > > > > I tried to set http_proxy environment variable and it still did not > > > work.
