You're using a HTTP proxy, right? I suspect the http vs https difference is 
then simply because git will use completely different ways to go through the 
proxies for the different protocols.

I think this means that git gets a HTTP 100 continue response back but then 
nothing else, which indicates a problem in your network or proxy.

Can you use git fine over this http+proxy against other git repos out in the 
wild? Which git + libcurl versions are you using?
