A newbie quesiton to Giter8 - Use giter8 for enterprise github and behind proxy?

[KimT]

Hi,

I'm trying to adopt giter8 to setup sbt template for our company.  We're using enterprise Github and we're behind proxy.  Is there any document or pointer to help me with this? I've tried various way of using brew and conscripts (see below) but both doesn't seem to work for me.  any help would been greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Kim

Install brew on Mac: 

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"

Using brew to install giter8:

$ brew update && brew install giter8

g8's looking good:

$ g8 -v

giter8 0.4.5
....

I'm able to get any sample templates from https://github.com/n8han/giter8/wiki/giter8-templates

So, I've created my template in mycompany enterprise version of github, and running github get this me error:

$ g8 g...@mycompany.com:myuser/sbt-sbtbuild-template.g8.git

Unable to find github repository: g...@mycompany.com:myuser/sbt-sbtbuild-template.g8.git.g8 (master)

$ g8 http://mycompany.com:myuser/sbt-sbtbuild-template.g8.git

Unable to find github repository: http://mycompany.com:myuser/sbt-sbtbuild-template.g8.git.g8 (master)

====== trying via conscript

I'm behind the proxy, I can't seem to use conscript to install the latest giter8:

$ curl https://raw.github.com/n8han/conscript/master/setup.sh | sh

.....

conscript installed to /Users/userid/bin/cs

$ /Users/userid/bin/cs n8han/giter8

Hi Kim,

Maybe you need to configure the git http.proxy var? E.g:

> git config --global http.proxy http://proxy.mycompany:8080

See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/128035/how-do-i-pull-from-a-git-repository-through-an-http-proxy

Once you're able to git clone those URLs, g8 should work fine.
