Hi all,
I have searched everywhere over the Internet and I have yet to find a way to clone a project using git when my workstation is behind a company proxy. Can you guys clone your projects to a single zip file that I can download? This would be easier instead of working with some strange command-line tool that does not recognize modern networks. Honestly I just need the DWT binary with the help files so I can use the api. I have spent weeks searching for a way to download DWT to my windows workstation at work and have yet figured out how to make GIT work.

Git provides a download by zip; Right side, bottom.

This is what I found on getting Git to work with a proxy:

I appreciate your response. I have tried these. I think the real issue is that I am not sure on the IP and port needed for the proxy here at work. The company uses WPAD in the browser and I cannot figure out what the IP and port the browser is using to connect through the proxy. If I knew that I probably could make it work. It would be nice if GitHUB would change their Downlaod Zip button such that it does a recursive zip to include all the subfolders.

I would just ssh to somewhere outside the firewall, git clone there, tar the folder, then scp it back. Assuming that is possible through your firewall.

If you're on windows then there are the always useful putty and winscp to do your ssh and scp work respectively.
