Brew Update Error with Git

I am running into an issue with running both rvm use ruby --install --default and brew update. It appears the later issue is the reason why I am seeing the first issue.

Here is the error for rvm use ruby --install --default:

ruby-2.1.2 is not installed - installing.
Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time.

Found remote file https://rvm.io/binaries/osx/10.9/x86_64/ruby-2.1.2.tar.bz2

++ return 1
Requirements installation failed with status: 1.
Gemset '' does not exist, 'rvm ruby-2.1.2 do rvm gemset create ' first, or append '--create'.

I then try brew update and this is the error I'm seeing:

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew.git/': Could not resolve host: github.com
Error: Failure while executing: git pull -q origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master

What is the source of the issue/fix it.

It might be a problem with Git. Just try to do this on a terminal:

git config --global --unset http.proxy 

git config --global --unset https.proxy

and restart your terminal or open a new one. Then try brew update again.

I had a similar issue but was able to resolve it. Every time I tried to run brew update I'd get this error:

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew.git/': Could not resolve host: github.com
Error: Failure while executing: git pull --quiet origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master

My issue was that I was using a VPN, but after turning it off it worked for me.
