Proxy support is broken in the recent version (rustup 1.22.0 (2d019878d 2020-07-02))

Problem
Earlier I was able to install/update rust using rustup at my workplace where access is through the proxy.
Today, I was able to successfully update the rustup ( rustup self update ) but after that no longer able to update the toolchain.

See the detail comment : https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/hmaddj/announcing_rustup_1220/fx7eeg2?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

Steps

After updating the rustup to the latest version, try to install tool chain with proxy enabled.

Hi, I'm sorry you encountered this. @inejge noticed this and provided an updated env_proxy and #2399 last night, and we're trying to get a release out ASAP. I'll close this once 1.22.1 is out.

In case anyone is stuck with this, falling back to curl by setting RUSTUP_USE_CURL=1 as a temporary workaround worked in my environment.

Thanks @alaric for the workaround.

1.22.1 is out and should be fixed.
