I started reading the source myself, and found that
cgit_prepare_repo_env is called after all authentication
filters.
The diff below shows a possible fix. It does however only
apply for authenticate-cookie and body, and not
authenticate-post (apparently due to the repo only being
loaded in the former two cases).
