problem when pushing rails application on heroku behind proxy

Question

I want to push my rails application in heroku cloud. My internet is behind proxy. I have set my proxy in git bash by following command:

$ export http_proxy=http://host:port

Then I tried to push application by command:

$ git push heroku master

but it gives me error like:

ssh: heroku.com: no address associated with name
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Then I set my proxy by command:

$ git config --global http.proxy http://host:port

But still getting the same error. Can you tell me what should I do for that?

Your git repository is set to use the ssh connection type to push or pull to or from heroku. You need to configure your ssh client to know how to negotiate your http proxy to reach the outside world. From the ssh_config(5) manpage:

For example, the following directive would connect via an
HTTP proxy at 192.0.2.0:
            ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -X connect -x 192.0.2.0:8080 %h %p

I don't know if your http proxy will let ssh through, with or without using the ProxyCommand directive, but it could be a good place to start.
