HELP: cannot clone a repository via http_proxy on FC13

Hello,

I cannot use git clone to get data from a repository.

I encountered the problem and searched on line without any solutions. So could you please help me on this?

First, I have setup the http_proxy as an environment variable. And I can use wget to download the repository page.

--- On my FC13
System: Fedora 13
Kernel version: 2.6.33.4-95.fc13.i686.PAE
Git version: 1.7.0.1

I tried this command:
   sudo git clone
http://git.gitorious.org/meego-developer-tools/image-creator.git

got the error messages as follow:
   Initialized empty Git repository in
/home/sylvia/workarea/DEV_TOOLS/test/image-creator/.git/
   error: Failed connect to git.gitorious.org:80; Operation now in
progress while accessing
http://git.gitorious.org/meego-developer-tools/image-creator.git/info/refs

   fatal: HTTP request failed

--- On my FC12 I also tried on Fedora 12, same error exist.

--- On my Kubuntu: it is working well.
System: Kubuntu
Kernel version: 2.6.31-21-generic
Git version: 1.6.3.3

Seems it is something wrong with Fedora. Can you help me on this? Thanks a lot.

BR, Sylvia

Probably not related, but why sudo?

Can you try

  $ GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git clone
http://git.gitorious.org/meego-developer-tools/image-creator.git

and paste the output here?

Hi Ray,

Thanks a lot. Seems the "sudo" IS the problem, indeed. Without the sudo, it is working.

But on Ubuntu, I use sudo all the times, and it still works. Isn't it strange? And as I remembered, while I using FC12 before, it didn't work neither; even without a sudo....

Anyway, it is working. Thanks.

What is your Ubuntu's and FC13 /etc/sudoers file like?

Hi,

My sudoers file seems quite simple. I haven't modified it except for adding my own user name in it.

------------------------- FC13 sudoers: " Defaults requiretty
