I have published the 2.3.4 version with proxy support.

Hi @shanalikhan, to solve this problem, just add proxy into options when you create node-github instance, like:

new GitHubApi({ proxy: "http://127.0.0.1:1080" // ss proxy for example. })

as the node-github is using https-proxy-agent to handle proxy in its httpSend function which is used to handle Gist/GitHub api.

So, you can just save proxy settings into syncSettings.json file, and read it when your ext is activated.

I’ve tested in my syncing ext and it worked well. Hope this would help!
