download/git: ensure we have a sane repository

Browse Source 
There are cases where a repository might be broken, e.g. when a previous
operation was killed or otherwise failed unexpectedly.

We fix that by always initialising the repository, as suggested by
Ricardo. git-init is safe on an otherwise-healthy repository:

    Running git init in an existing repository is safe. It will not
    overwrite things that are already there. [...]

Using git-init will just ensure that we have the strictly required files
to form a sane tree. Any blob that is still missing would get fetched
later on.
