git protocol under proxy

Git is a free & open source, distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

I went through this link and set proxy and port in gitproxy script as our college proxy-server and port .

My gitproxy script looks like

#!/bin/sh 
# Use socat to proxy git through an HTTP CONNECT firewall. 
# Useful if you are trying to clone git:// from inside a company. 
# Requires that the proxy allows CONNECT to port 9418. 
# 
# Save this file as gitproxy somewhere in your path (e.g., ~/bin) and then run 
#   chmod +x gitproxy 
#   git config --global core.gitproxy gitproxy 
# 
# More details at http://tinyurl.com/8xvpny 

# Configuration. Common proxy ports are 3128, 8123, 8000. 
_proxy=172.16.1.11 
_proxyport=3128 

exec socat STDIO PROXY:$_proxy:$1:$2,proxyport=$_proxyport
