[chef] Large cookbook uploads fail with "unauthorized" after data upload

["Jason J. W. Williams" < >]

Is there a way to get a cookbook with several very large files to
upload via knife without this happening:

Uploading testcookbook             [0.5.0]
<-----Pauses here for about 30 mins while the cookbook uploads 90MB
ERROR: Failed to upload #<Chef::CookbookVersion:0x10178fdf0> : 401
