Squid Proxy – Troubleshooting Squid HTTP Proxy Issues with Git Clone

githttp-proxyPROXYsquid

I've installed the Squid through Docker and tested with curl and browser, it works fine!

And then I'm going to set the Http proxy to git, the below is my command:

git config --global http.proxy http://myserverip:3128

And then, here is the result of the above command in the git config.

$ cat ~/.gitconfig
[http]
    proxy = http://squid.veronalabs.com:3128
    sslVerify = false

But the git clone doesn't work!

$ git clone git@gitlab.com:repo/project.git
Cloning into 'panel'...
ssh: connect to host gitlab.com port 22: Connection timed out
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

And anyway, I've added this proxy for outgoing connections:

$ export http_proxy=http://myserverip:3128
$ export https_proxy=http://myserverip:3128

I really appreciate any helps!

You are using http.proxy but trying to clone the repository with SSH. you should use the https GitLab link.

Manage http access to git repositories using gitosis

Gitosis uses gitweb for http publishing of repositories.

You need to have gitweb running.

Please ensure that gitweb is installed. Your gitweb.conf should look like:

# Location of the git binary
$GIT = "/usr/bin/git";

# Project root for gitweb
$projectroot = "/srv/git/repositories";

$stylesheet = "/gitweb.css";
$logo = "/git-logo.png";
$favicon = "/git-favicon.png";

# Site name
$site_name = "My site";

# URL formatting
#$my_uri = "http://git.somewhere.net/";
#$home_link = $my_uri;

# Base URL for project trees
@git_base_url_list = ("ssh://git\@somewhere.net");

# Length of the project description column in the webpage.
$projects_list_description_width = 50;

# Which repos are allowed to export
$export_ok = "git-daemon-export-ok";

# Enable PATH_INFO so the server can produce URLs of the
# form: http://git.hokietux.net/project.git/xxx/xxx
$feature{'pathinfo'}{'default'} = [1];

# Enable blame, pickaxe search, snapshop, search, and grep
$feature{'blame'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'blame'}{'override'} = [1];

$feature{'pickaxe'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'pickaxe'}{'override'} = [1];

$feature{'snapshot'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'snapshot'}{'override'} = [1];

$feature{'search'}{'default'} = [1];

$feature{'grep'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'grep'}{'override'} = [1];

Example gitweb config in apache:

Alias /gitweb/gitweb.css /usr/share/gitweb/gitweb.css
Alias /gitweb/git-logo.png /usr/share/gitweb/git-logo.png
Alias /gitweb/git-favicon.png /usr/share/gitweb/git-favicon.png
ScriptAlias /gitweb /usr/lib/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi
<Directory /usr/share/gitweb>
  Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
  AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
</Directory>
<Location /gitweb>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    #AuthType Basic
    #AuthName "GITOLITE"
    #AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/gitweb.htpasswd
    #Require valid-user
</Location>
# Securing with users example
<Location /gitweb/SomethingToHide.git>
        Require user myusername
</Location>

I've switched to gitolite because...

it is easier to use
it has more options (security, grouping etc.)
