  1. Problem Description

As shown in the figure below, unable to git clone a repository from Github, reporting port 443 error

  1. Problem Analysis

The port set in Git is inconsistent with the system proxy and needs to be reset

  1. Solution

3-1. Open the Proxy Page

Open Settings → Network & Internet → Find Proxy

Record the current system proxy IP address and port number

As shown in the above figure, the address and port number are: 127.0.0.1:7890

3-2. Modify Git’s Network Settings

# Note to modify to your own IP and port number
git config --global http.proxy http://127.0.0.1:7890 
git config --global https.proxy http://127.0.0.1:7890

  1. Conclusion

You can try cloning again (in fact, this mainly solves the problem of why the proxy still doesn’t work after setting up the VPN, hahaha)

  1. Postscript

When we access GitHub, we usually use a VPN (proxy), so when pushing code up, a VPN is also required. Without a VPN, the probability of successful push is very low, usually resulting in timeout errors, so setting a VPN improves the success rate of access;

Canceling the proxy is because accessing Gitee or others does not require a VPN, so the proxy needs to be turned off; or if you regret setting the proxy, you can also use this to cancel it

# Cancel proxy
git config --global --unset http.proxy
git config --global --unset https.proxy

# View proxy
git config --global --get http.proxy
git config --global --get https.proxy
