Description
Hi,
I have just a question for you.
Are "standard" environment variables for proxy settings (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY or http_proxy and https_proxy) honoured while installing xcode?
I ask this because I have an installation failing with timeout:
$ xcodes install 14.1
The request timed out.
This is done on a remote AWS mac machine which needs proxy for outgoing http(s) connections.
All mentioned proxy variables are set.
If proxy is not the cause, have you already met this error before? What could be the cause?
Many thanks for your answers.

Research direction
Start with the xcodes install 14.1 command and the reported HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables on the remote AWS Mac. Determine whether proxy settings are honored and identify the cause of the request timeout; done means proxy-based installation works or the timeout cause is documented.
