Git Access Error on Windows 7: unable to access ... Received HTTP code 407 from proxy after CONNECT

Occasionally I get this error connecting to Git a github:

$ git pull
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/fincher42/demo.git/': Received HTTP code 407 from proxy after CONNECT


The proxy is complaining that the password is out of date by giving us a  407 error,  which is an authentication error.  Then I remember I just changed my system password.

The solution is easy, just tell Git your new password:

git config --global http.proxy http://myUserId:myPassword@myProxy.myDomain.com:80
git config --global https.proxy https://myUserId:myPassword@myProxy.myDomain.com:80
