Description
The `boot.jar` file that is used for bootstrapping the environment is currently downloaded from Github and specifying a proxy for that operation is non-obvious. A solution pointed out by @micha in https://github.com/boot-clj/boot-bin/issues/2 has been tested by multiple people and seems to work:
```
BOOT_JVM_OPTIONS='-Dhttps.proxyHost=1.2.3.4' boot ...
```
This should be documented in a proper wiki page. Maybe a page `For Proxy Users` could describe this as well has usage of the `:proxy` boot-env key.
