How to config github proxy with http/https/ssh

config proxy for http/https

git config --global http.proxy socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
git config --global https.proxy socks5://127.0.0.1:1080

or edit the file ~/.gitconfig and add the following item

[http]
      proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
[https]
      proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1080

config proxy for ssh

install proxychains

use the tool proxychains, run the following command to install in arch Linux based distributions (i.e. Manajaro).

sudo pacman -S proxychains-ng

config proxychains

edit the file /etc/proxychains.conf, add a line in the ProxyList item

[ProxyList]
socks5 127.0.0.1 1080

set up alias

Open the file ~/.zshrc (in manjaro) and add the following line:

alias git="proxychains -q git"

Now you can use git commands by ssh if a public ssh-key has been shared to your account on Github.com.
