I'm a bit lost with the state of this, I read your last discussion and
you sent patches to support a proxy url without the protocol part, I assume
that's done and apart from that there is a bug in the LIBCURL_VERSION which
is an easy fix I could send a patch for.

The code to talk to http proxies learn to use the same credential
API used to talk to the final http destinations.  This still needs
to peek into $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY}.

My original patch already peeked in HTTPS_PROXY env var, I post the
relevant part:
 
+	if (!curl_http_proxy) {
+		const char *env_proxy, *no_proxy;
+		char *env_proxy_var;
+		int read_http_proxy;
+		struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;
+		credential_from_url(&cre_url, url);
+		strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s_proxy", cre_url.protocol);
+		env_proxy_var = strbuf_detach(&buf, NULL);
+		env_proxy = getenv(env_proxy_var);

                ^^ HERE ^^

+		if (env_proxy) {
+			read_http_proxy = 1;
+			no_proxy = getenv("no_proxy");
+			if (no_proxy && (!strcmp("*", no_proxy) || strstr(no_proxy, cre_url.host)))
+				read_http_proxy = 0;
+			
+			if (read_http_proxy)
+				curl_http_proxy = xstrdup(env_proxy);
+		}
+		free(env_proxy_var);
+	}
 	if (curl_http_proxy) {

so are you referring to something else ?
