The forward slashes are only needed if the rewrite rules are being put directly into the config file of the apache virtual host. They should not be added to the .htaccess file, as in this case the redirect is not working (this has been tested by me on multiple systems).
You can also see in the discussion of the bug report #1069 after it was merged, that the reporter actually put the rules into his apache conf, instead of a .htaccess and that somebody else was reporting, that it was only working without the forward slashes in a .htaccess file.
After following two different tutorials on Internet, I have encountered login loop after fresh install. It had taken me some time to fix this problem, so I am proposing this troubleshooting part here.

Your web server is not properly set up to resolve “/ocm-provider/”. This is most likely related to a web server configuration that was not updated to deliver this folder directly. Please compare your configuration against the shipped rewrite rules in “.htaccess” for Apache or the provided one in the documentation for Nginx at it’s documentation page 1. On Nginx those are typically the lines starting with “location ~” that need an update.

I think for runnning nextcloud in a subdirectory of webroot, this rewrite has to be added to the nignx configuration when running nextcloud in a subdirectory of webroot
