#

# Use socat to proxy common SCM protocols through HTTP CONNECT firewall.

# Useful if you are trying to use svn or git where a http version of the repo

# is not available for use. For svn, while it supports setting a http proxy in

# the config file, I've not found it particularly reliable.

#

#

# Save this file as repoproxy somewhere in your path (e.g., ~/bin), make it executable,

# and then create the symlinks either gitproxy or svnproxy in the same location and

# following the instructions appropriate to them.

#



# GIT

#

# gitproxy

#  git config --global core.gitproxy gitproxy

#

# More details and original at

# http://www.emilsit.net/blog/archives/how-to-use-the-git-protocol-through-a-http-connect-proxy/

#



# SVN

#

# svnproxy

#  edit ~/.subversion/config and add "socat = <path to script>" under the tunnels section

#

# then whenever using svn, simply change the line "svn://" to read "svn+socat://"

# and continue to use as normal

#



# Need proxy settings
