libgit2: Improve HTTP redirection observability

Git repositories may be redirected to different URLs when they are accessed via HTTP. The two most obvious scenarios are from HTTP to HTTPS and when the .git suffix is missing. By improving the logging on this process users can identify changes required to their GitRepository objects. Signed-off-by: Paulo Gomes <[email protected]>
