It's been there for quite some time, although I never liked the
way it interfaces with the outside world.

	$ cat .git/config
        [core]
                repositoryformatversion = 0
                filemode = true
                gitproxy = /usr/local/bin/tn-gw-nav-local
	$ cat /usr/local/bin/tn-gw-nav-local
        #!/bin/sh
	# Use squid running at localhost
        exec tn-gw-nav -H -h 127.0.0.1 -p 3128 "$1" "$2"
	$ grep SSL /etc/squid/squid.conf
        acl SSL_ports 443 563 9418 # https snntp git
        http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports
	$ git fetch --tags git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/

It is a bit inconvenient that "git clone" wrapper cannot be used
on an existing repository, and without an existing repository
you cannot have .git/config. You could have the config file in
your site-wide template area, but admittably it is a bit
awkward.
