I was facing the same issue, .NET framework update worked for me. No need to reinstall the GitHub Windows client. Check this thread

    When i install GitHub i can't log in using my acount credentials. I get the error

    Login Error
    unable to retrieve your user info from the server. A proxy server might be interfering with the request
    

    I tried reinstalling several times, with no success. Also, i read somewhere that someone had a problem with rasman.dll, but i did run

    sfc /scannnow
    

    command and didn't get any reports.

    Do you have any idea what might cause this problem?

    UPDATE: I re-installed the app for the third time, and updated my .NET framework, and it solved my problem (i'm guessing the .NET framework update solved it, but maybe the re-installation helped :))
