[yocto] git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky issues, meta-clanton_v1.0.0, from behind firewall

[Krzysztof Czarnowski]

Hello,

A newbie question, maybe a faq, but I've searched... Sorry if I've
missed something...

I'm trying to build Galileo BSP, and in particular
meta-clanton_v1.0.0. My dev machine is behind firewall, but I've read
the howto:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Working_Behind_a_Network_Proxy
checked that the following netcat command:
/bin/nc -X connect -x $PROXY:$PORT git.yoctoproject.org 9418
opens the connection and configured git to use it.

But still I get the following failure when I run setup.sh
"""
$ ./setup.sh
Running: git init
Initialized empty Git repository in
./poky/.git/
Running: git remote add origin git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
Running: git fetch origin --depth=3 tags/dylan-9.0.2:tags/dylan-9.0.2
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
"""
So I understand that I reach the remote repository, but still for some
reason can't read it..

What do I miss? Anyone's experienced similar issues?
Regards,
Krzysztof

P.S.
The dev system is Ubuntu server 13.10.
