http: bump the pretend git version in the User-Agent We want to keep the git UA in order for services to recognise that we're a Git client and not a browser. But in order to stop dumb HTTP some services have blocked UAs that claim to be pre-1.6.6 git. Thread these needles by using the "git/2.0" prefix which is still close enough to git's yet distinct enough that you can tell it's us.
