Unexpected exception when pushing from windows

See original GitHub issue

Hi, when I try to push to a repo on windows 7 64bits I get this:

unexpected exception (run with -v for details)

Running with -v gives:

Pushing to dropbox:///test
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "p:\anaconda\lib\site-packages\urllib3\util\timeout.py", line 124, in _validate_timeout
    float(value)
TypeError: float() argument must be a string or a number, not 'Timeout'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

ValueError: Timeout value connect was Timeout(connect=30, read=30, total=None), but it must be an int, float or None.

The only steps that I have taken were installing the program via pip (as in the instructions) and creating a file called .git-remote-dropbox.json in my home folder (inside my user profile) with the API key, then creating a test repo in my computer (not in dropbox), then running git remote add origin dropbox:///.

What could I be doing wrong?

Steps to Reproduce:

I created a new Google Cloud instance running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I then installed the Python 3.6 version of Anaconda:

wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-4.4.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Anaconda3-4.4.0-Linux-x86_64.sh -b -p ~/anaconda

Then changed my path:

export PATH=~/anaconda/bin:$PATH

Installed git-remote-dropbox:

:~$ pip install git-remote-dropbox
Collecting git-remote-dropbox
  Downloading git_remote_dropbox-1.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Collecting dropbox<9,>=8.0 (from git-remote-dropbox)

Installing collected packages: urllib3, dropbox, git-remote-dropbox
Successfully installed dropbox-8.0.0 git-remote-dropbox-1.0.1 urllib3-1.22

Then went to the app console. Selected “Create App” > “Dropbox API” > “Full Dropbox” > Name: “test-new-111” > Choose Dropbox Account: “Personal” (I also have a work Dropbox). Then clicked on “Generate Access Token” and copied and pasted that into ~/.git-remote-dropbox.json:

{
    "default": "..."
}

Then created a test git repo:

mkdir test
cd test
git init
git remote add origin "dropbox:///path/to/repo"
echo "test" >> README.md
git add README.md
git config --global user.email "barronk@mit.edu"
git config --global user.name "Kyle Barron"
git commit -m "Initial Commit"

And then was unable to push:

~/test$ git push -u origin master
error: unexpected exception (run with -v for details)
~/test$ git push -u origin master -v
Pushing to dropbox:///path/to/repo
