Getting Windows git client to work with a proxy server

If you are behind a proxy you need to edit the .gitconfig file which 
should be in your user home directory
(for example, mine is at C:\Users\JNURTHEN\.gitconfig )

I added the following to my file (obviously replacing the content with 
the real server name and port.

[http]
proxy = http://myproxyserver.domain.com:portnumber

[https]
proxy = http://myproxyserver.domain.com:portnumber
