I am trying to troubleshoot libgit2 failing behind a proxy (see Pkg.add() through proxy fails on Julia 0.5, Windows ). I am looking through the libgit2 functions ( https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/base/libgit2 ) to try to find some way to find out what proxy libgit2 is grabbing from gitc…
