Does a regular wget https://raw.github.com/boostorg/boost/develop/tools/regression/src/regressio... Does it work with the proxy or without the proxy?

Unfortunately no, neither works.

Note.. You can't use git tools with the raw URLs. They are meant to just read the content of files directly. But you should be able to use web tools (wget and browsers) with them.

Okay, thanks for the info.

Hi,

When I try to run github hosted regression tests with run.py, access to raw.github.com times out even though it seems to be using the specified our proxy server.

# Running regressions in /scratch/modular-boost... # Creating regression scripts at /scratch/modular-boost/tools_regression_src... # Dowloading regression scripts from https://raw.github.com/boostorg/boost/develop/tools/regression/src... --- http://wwwproxy.sandia.gov:80

What's interesting is that I'm able to clone from github.com just fine, as you can see here.

-bash-4.1$ git clone https://github.com/boostorg/boost Initialized empty Git repository in /scratch/modular-boost/boost/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 180556, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (68339/68339), done. remote: Total 180556 (delta 111934), reused 180501 (delta 111879) Receiving objects: 100% (180556/180556), 68.21 MiB | 10.23 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (111934/111934), done.

But we're not able to clone from raw.

-bash-4.1$ git clone https://raw.github.com/boostorg/boost Initialized empty Git repository in /scratch/modular-boost/boost/.git/ error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://raw.github.com/boostorg/boost/info/refs fatal: HTTP request failed

which means this clone ( https://raw.github.com/boostorg/boost/develop/tools/regression/src) will fail. Is this a known issue and / or is there a workaround for this? This is on RHE Linux with git 1.8.5.1.
