Description

Is there any chance to support HTTP-transport via proxy in rugged for Rugged::Repository.clone_at('http://example.org/repo.git')? There's an issue open at libgit2/libgit2#2555, but maybe that would be something which can / needs to be "fixed" in rugged itself.

Cheers,
dg

Research direction

Start with Rugged::Repository.clone_at('http://example.org/repo.git') and review libgit2/libgit2#2555 to determine whether proxy support belongs in rugged or libgit2. Done means HTTP cloning through a configured proxy works through this API, with coverage added wherever the repository's clone tests live.
