Looking at your pastebin, it looks like the server sometimes takes it and sometimes not. E.g., piping the log through: egrep '(Send|Recv) header:' | perl -lpe 's/^.*?(=>|<=) //' I see: Send header: GET /example-keys/sample-project.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: User-Agent: git/2.19.0 ... Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized Recv header: WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="GitLab" ... Send header: GET /example-keys/sample-project.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Send header: User-Agent: git/2.19.0 ... Recv header: HTTP/1.1 200 OK So that works. But then later we get: Send header: GET /example-keys/sample-project.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: User-Agent: git/2.19.0 ... Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized Recv header: WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="GitLab" ... Send header: GET /example-keys/sample-project.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Send header: User-Agent: git/2.19.0 ... Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized And then that causes credential-store to delete the non-working entry, after which all of them must fail (because you have no working credential, and presumably no terminal to prompt the user). I have no idea why the same request would sometimes be allowed and sometimes not. It's possible the <redacted> data is different in those two times, but I don't know why that would be. It's also possible you're hitting different load-balancing servers that behave differently. -Peff
