How to reproduce in self local host: Simply make a commit and try to push it to origin/master remote, a "Too many redirects or authentication replays" error message will come up instead of a username/password input box.

So in order to walk around the problem, we check if "authentication" is also in the error message, if it is, then the server will send a 401 respond which will allow client show the username/password input box to continue work properly.
