I have set the 'http_proxy' environment variable to point at our proxy. Before that it complained about not being able to look up the host name. On Wed, Jan 21, 2009 at 3:30 PM, Sigbjorn Finne wrote:

1080 is SOCKS, so there's some defaulting proxy setup kicking in here. Set the 'http_proxy' environment variable to point it at your local proxy server.

What port is git using for getting the ghc repo via http?

I'm getting this message behind our thick firewall:

fatal: http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc.git/info/refs download error - Failed connect to darcs.haskell.org:1080; Operation now in progress

It makes me think port 1080 is involved, and I don't think any access to that port is allowed. If the repo is not totally available on port 80 (or the https port) then it's impossible to get from behind paranoid firewalls.
