Is this a git buffer size or is this a value you tell libcurl in an option to 
set a buffer size?

How are you feeding the data to libcurl? (callback or by setting the 
postfields option?) I noticed that in the working case log, the POST requests 
always have a content-length header while the failing case log shows that 
header lacking in the final POST request.

Is that on purpose?

libcurl should still handle it fine, it might just be a clue for me to narrow 
down my search.
