I've been looking at this a bit. It's probably worth mentioning that the
problem does _not_ happen if username and password are specified in the
URL or in the .netrc. In both of those cases, curl is taking care of the
credentials itself.

So far I figured out that setting 'git config http.maxRequests 1' fixes
the problem as well. Looking at the output with GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 set,
it seems that some GET requests use the credentials, while others do
not. My guess is that the CURLOPT_USERPWD option does not apply to all
threads.
