The unpack() method constructs the git clone command with a trailing
slash appended to ud.clonedir:
git clone -s <clonedir>/ <destdir>
When git processes 'clone -s', it writes the source object path into
<destdir>/.git/objects/info/alternates by appending '/objects' to the
source path. The extra trailing slash produces a double slash:
<clonedir>//objects
Newer versions of git refuse to normalize this path and report:
error: unable to normalize alternate object path: <path>//objects
fatal: bad object HEAD
Remove the spurious trailing slash so the alternates file contains a
valid, normalizable path.
