Not in every company you can access sites like github.com as easy. Sometimes you may sit behind a proxy. In addition you may also have internal git repos which you need to access. In that case best way to do so is to define a proxy for github.com in your gitconfig file
[http]
sslcainfo = /ssl/certs/ca-chain.pem
sslBackend = schannel
proxy=
[http "https://github.com/"]
proxy=http://{username}:{password}@{proxy-server}:{port}

proxy=http://:@{proxy-server}:{port}
