Describe the bug

When trying to sync repos, I get rpc error: code = Unknown desc = unexpected client error: unexpected requesting "https://gitlab.com/criscola/capi-gce-demo-argocd/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack" status code: 301

I've had a look at this of course: https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/issues/2640 but it didn't solve my problem.

To Reproduce

I added my repository like that: argocd repo add git@gitlab.com:criscola/capi-gce-demo-argocd.git --ssh-private-key-path ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

I then switched to using HTTPS and it worked. As you can see I've added the suffix .git to the repo's URL.

Expected behavior

My Applications should sync fine.

I think ArgoCD should automatically add .git suffix if does not exist in repo's URL.

[tliechti]

This error also occurs if the repo is empty and argocd is trying to connect to it (with .git in the url)

[pschichtel]

This also occurs after migrating my git host to a new domain. why doesn't it "simply" follow redirects?

[zimmertr]

This also happens when you try and use a private repo for which you don't have a credential secret defined.

.git is the answer
