Why is git not working over HTTPS with basic authentication? I can clone just fine, but when I try to push, it tells me

error: Cannot access URL https://..., return code 22 fatal: git-http-push failed

I have googled for an hour now, all I find is people that have the same problem and the solution is always to use SSH.
