[julia-users] Re: I cannot reach GitHub because of a firewall at work, how do I install Gadfly?

[Steven G. Johnson]

See the manual on how to use git from behind a firewall:

     http://docs.julialang.org/en/latest/manual/packages/

In particular, you can run

     git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://

to tell git to use https instead of git protocol, in order to work with 
your firewall.
