Heroku – How to push to heroku behind a proxy

herokuPROXY

I am using git behind a proxy server at my university. While trying to execute

git push heroku master

I get an error

ssh: connect to host proxy.heroku.com port 22: Bad file number
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I had a similar problem when pushing to git earlier, but that was solved using their smart HTTP. From what I've read so far, it seems to be a network problem. How do I fix this? Is there any way to push to heroku using HTTP? (I'm guessing pushing through SSH is causing this problem and that the port 22 is blocked)

Corkscrew is a tool for tunneling SSH through HTTP proxies

Setting up Corkscrew with SSH/OpenSSH is very simple. Adding the following line to your ~/.ssh/config file will usually do the trick (replace proxy.example.com and 8080 with correct values):

ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/corkscrew proxy.example.com 8080 %h %p
