title: Git couldn't resolve proxy
body: <p>I'm trying to push my changes but keep getting the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>error: Couldn't resolve proxy ''xx.xxx.xxx.xxx' while accessing http://name:password@site.com:7678/scm/xx/xxx.git/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack
  fatal: HTTP request failed
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Previously I had set up a proxy for an unrelated project on Windows 8 through 'LAN Settings' in 'Internet Options', I removed the proxy but it seems that Git is trying to connect to it for some reason. I never set any proxy options on Git.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>git config --global --unset http.proxy
  git config --global --unset core.gitproxy
  git config --local --unset http.proxy
  </code></pre>
