How to solve fatal: unable to access, Received HTTP code 400 from proxy after CONNECT

Question

When I try to get a pull form master using git pull origin master I get the following proxy error.

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/xxx/xxx.git/': Received HTTP code 400 from proxy after CONNECT

I'm working on a macOS Mojave and I haven't configured any proxy servers either. Anyone know how to fix this issue?

Answer 1

just run rm ~/.gitconfig

Maybe try instead:

git config --global --unset http.proxy
git config --global --unset https.proxy
git config --global --unset core.gitproxy

Check with git config -l --show-origin|grep -i proxy, to be sure you didn't missed anything.

The point is: that would be less "destructive" than rm ~/.gitconfig.

Answer 2

Because of some proxy configurations this occurs, to reset all the configurations just run rm ~/.gitconfig and start the terminal again.
