http_username and http_password are meant to be used if you have your own gitlab server, with HTTP authentication setup in additional to standard GitLab auth. Gitlab.com doesn't provide this.

User/password authentication has been disabled on gitlab.com, you need to use a token to authenticate.

You can have a look at #380 for the discussion and workarounds.
