I've got MSysGit (Git on Windows) working just fine on my home machine, but at work, where we are behind a Microsoft ISA proxy, I get the following error when I do a Git clone:

H:
cd \
git clone git://github.com/akitaonrails/vimfiles.git

Output:

Initialized empty Git repository in H:/vimfiles/.git/
github.com[0: 65.74.177.129]: errno=Invalid argument
fatal: unable to connect a socket (Invalid argument)

I've tried setting the http_proxy environment variable to:

http://our-proxy-server:8088

I've set the Git http.proxy configuration directive:

git config --global http.proxy http://our-proxy-server:8088

Neither of the above makes a difference.

Doing a Git clone with http:// instead of git:// yields this:

H:
cd \
git clone http://github.com/akitaonrails/vimfiles.git

Output:

Initialized empty Git repository in H:/vimfiles/.git/
fatal: http://github.com/akitaonrails/vimfiles.git/info/refs download error - The    requested URL returned error: 407

407 is of course an authentication error.

Is there a way to get Git working from behind a proxy, specifically an ISA proxy? I don't know if it's going to be worth pursing this.
