GIT behind proxy while compiling

[NotSoSimple]

Working behind work proxy. Trying to compile the kernel for Xen. However during the 'make world' process it barfs when executing the git command. Proxy settings is set on my box for http, and that works if I sub the git:// for http://. I also tried finding the conf file that specified the git repos it pulls from and subbing git:// for http:// but that still did not work.

Any help? I read that you can supply a conf file for git that includes proxy info. When I tried it just barked at me. It seemed I had the wrong CL switches

Edit: Ok I have modified the src.git-clone file to have to look @ my localbranch. Seems to work until it gets to the end and then throws:

 make[3]: Entering directory `/home/user/Downloads/xen-4.0.1' buildconfigs/src.git-clone:31: *** missing seperator. Stop.

Trying to find a clean/vanilla version of that file is not working. Damn I should have backed it up...
