From: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> Current code, after receiving HTTP_REAUTH, only retried once, so couldn't do step 3 of the following sequence: 1. We make a request; proxy returns 407, because we didn't give it a password. We ask for the password and return HTTP_REAUTH. 2. We make another request; the proxy passes it to the actual server, who returns 401, because we didn't give an http password. We ask for the password and return HTTP_REAUTH. 3. We make a third request, but this time everybody is happy. Now we retry as long as we keep receiving HTTP_REAUTH, so the previous sequence correctly completes.
