无法连接到 git 远程存储库

Question

After performing git push -u origin master , I got:

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/xxxx/xxxx.git': Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8087: Connection refused

Same error occurred, when I tried to clone other repositories, too.

The Port 8087 doesn't seem to be busy. What could go wrong?

Edit: when I do clone from git:// instead of https:// , it works just fine.

Answer 1

This happens because a proxy is configured in git.

Since it's https proxy (and not http) git config http.proxy and git config --global http.proxy can't help.

1 : take a look at your git configuration

git config --global -l

If you have nothing related to https proxy like https_proxy=... the problem is not here.

If you have something related to https proxy then remove it from the file ~/.gitconfig and try again

2 : if it still doesn't work, unset environment variables

Check your environment variables :

env|grep -i proxy  

You should have one or several lines with https_proxy=...

Unset one by one with : unset https_proxy (or HTTPS_PROXY depending of the name of the variable)

3 : check environment variables again

env|grep -i proxy

If it shows nothing you should be good.

Note : This solution can applies to http and https proxy problems. just the variables name changes from https to http

Laurent's answer worked for me. (I am behind corporate firewall.) In my case,

• I removed the proxy setting in .gitconfig file.

• Everything just work fine. I can clone from a remote repo.

• When i wanted to push to the remote repo, I generated a ssh key . Then I am able to push.

Hope it saves someones 2 hours.

Answer 3

git config --global --unset http.proxy

Answer 4

It seems that git tries to use a local proxy.

Please check your global network-settings and those of git.

Use git config http.proxy and git config --global http.proxy to get the proxy-settings of git.

I had tried all the methods mentioned above, but I was missing something other than what they have mentioned,

try to update your credentials in Control panel -> User Accounts -> Credential Manager for Git it worked for me
