A quick investigation shows that… * `gix` (CLI)` already [asks to write packed refs only](https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/blob/345712dcdfddcccc630bbfef2ed4f461b21550d3/gix/src/clone/fetch/mod.rs#L141) - this doesn't seem to fully kick-in * By default, [this setting won't write packed...

It's amazing that Git can do it - or does it just ignore the reflog maybe? If so, and it's my guess that it does, `gix` could do the same.

First of all, let me thank you for this fantastic tool, it's impressive work, and so complete and usable! When writing `gitoxide` I always thought that I want to use...

Is this still an issue for you in the latest Version 0.11.3 (20240419.070253)? Thanks for your help.

Indeed, `gitoxide` does support HTTP proxies if these are configured in Git and the `curl` backend (the default) is used. Meanwhile, I also think that the `Use a Git executable`...

As of Version 0.11.3 (20240419.070253), a lot has changed that should improve the situation significantly. Could you see if it's now working for you?
