Search for proxy here:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-config.html

but I think the more or less standard $http_proxy environment variable
does the trick.

Either use ~/.netrc (see
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/setup-git-server-over-http.txt ),
or set the URL of the remote repo to
http(s)://user:password@server.com/path in .git/config (after
restricting read permissions on this file appropriately, of course).
