Git not using logged in user for propfind

So, I set up a dandy non-ssl webshare on my server. SSL can come later once everything is configured right.

Git clones fine, but when it does a push and uses propfind, it decides to not use my username and so it gets a 401 not authorized error.

Here's output from my log. DAV works fine on everything I've tested on, it seems to be a git oopsie. Any ideas?
