Git will not allow a push unless the client is authenticated (and the
git client may fallback to trying dumb-http push-over-DAV, which you
likely haven't configured; that would explain the second error message).

The authentication check in http-backend checks whether $REMOTE_USER is
set. I see in your config that you set it from $REDIRECT_REMOTE_USER,
but I don't see any actual Auth directives. Do you need to add that
somewhere?

There are some Apache recipes in the git-http-backend manpage that might
help.
