I am getting the error
Total 4 (delta 2), reused 0 (delta 0) error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 401
When pushing to a git repository on GitLab.
It used to work.

I had the same issue: public repos don't force git to authenticate on the first request, and git doesn't offer authentication (at least as of version 1.7.9) on subsequent requests of the same push.
This pull request for GitLab should fix it; tested on GitLab 6.3 but it may apply fine on older versions too (please let me know if it fails along with the version string).

NB: It appears git v1.8.x might also fix this issue on the client side. I haven't tested myself so YMMV
After some debugging I realized that I recently activated "Public clone access" on the project. The remote URL is an http:// URL.
Error 401 simply means "access denied" - so even the account is stored in my system, git tries to push without account information which causes this error.

On my CentOS 6.5, git 1.7.1 I encountered the same problem, I update git to 1.7.6.1 solved this.
