Hi Renuka,

While the git solution will work for cloning repos, pushing to them, and
peforming slightly more complex operations are difficult.

If you're still insistent on this, I will point you to:
http://proxychains.sourceforge.net/

This tool takes any outgoing connection in the network and tunnels it
through a proxy. So if you say
proxychains git push origin master
It uses the proxy to execute the command, assuming that the proxy has port
for git open.

As for apt, there is a way to modify http proxy specifically:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/177

Good luck on your project, it'll be very useful to everyone in a
university.
