Short guide: GitHub via I2P

Inspired by the publication "Github is blocked again."

The news of the githab blocking made us think about making crutches.

For some reason, I immediately got the idea of ​​I2P.
')
And it really turned out to be easy.

So, in steps:

1. Download I2P and install;
2. After launch, go to the I2P network settings: 127.0.0.1 : 7657 / confignet;
3. In the “UDP Configuration” section we find the UDP port number and redirect it to the router;
4. Go to the I2P tunnel manager: 127.0.0.1 : 7657 / i2ptunnelmgr;
5. Check: there must be tunnels I2P HTTP Proxy (127.0.0.1:4444) and I2P HTTPS Proxy (127.0.0.1:4445);
6. In one of the browsers, for example in Mozilla, we prescribe the proxy settings: HTTP proxy - 127.0.0.1:4444 and SSL proxy - 127.0.0.1:4445 (Mozilla is convenient because it can be used to set proxy settings other than the system ones). Thus we get access to the web interface github;
7. Go to the Git console and execute the following commands:

git config --global http.proxy 127.0.0.1:4445 git config --global https.proxy 127.0.0.1:4445 

Is done. Now you can make commit and push.

It works through both the console and Tortoise Git.

The only thing - rather slowly.
