Hello Lucas

You can't submit patches via HTTP. You have to use SSH to submit patches, 
so you must have a way of connecting to port 22 on the server. Besides, if 
you use the HTTP transport, you'll be downloading a lot more data than 
then 100 MB that is the normal.

Please see your SSH configuration for information on how to use a proxy.

You can also try using dante's socksify command, which should work with 
any program. (Dante should be available in your Linux distribution, but 
otherwise you can try http://www.inet.no/dante/)

PS: I can confirm the error too. I'll forward to the information to 
Gitorious.
