What does the warning “redirecting to” actually mean?

Question

I have noticed that sometimes when I git pull a project, there is a message saying:

\"warning: redirecting to \"

I tried search

Answer 1

In my case the only difference was a trailing slash / on the URL address returned by the warning from GitHub.

Adding the trailing slash to my config file made the warning go away.

Oddly enough, I was doing a git fetch --all and only my remote required the final slash, the other (origin and maintainer's) GitHub repos didn't need it. Rather confusing.
