http 411, broken pipe, when I git push from local to webfaction

Question

I am getting the following error when trying to push from my local machine to a new git repo on my WebFaction account:

Counting objects: 1558, done.
Delta compression using up to 8 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (1430/1430), done.
error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 411
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Writing objects: 100% (1558/1558), 2.83 MiB | 2.42 MiB/s, done.
Total 1558 (delta 263), reused 0 (delta 0)
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: expected ok/error, helper said '4004ir??z?1??:'

fatal: write error: Broken pipe

HTTP 411 apparently means the server was expecting a Content-Length header.

I have git version: 1.7.2.3.msysgit.0

Ok, googled some and found it was my http 'post buffer' was too small. Setting it to be enormous fixed it:

git config http.postBuffer 524288000
