I couldn't reproduce an error after porting your patch to
master (commit 041f5ea1cf987a40 "The third batch"):
https://80x24.org/spew/20190322163449.25362-1-e@80x24.org/raw

So you might've hit an ephemeral error (bad connection,
HTTP server restarting, etc).

GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git \
	-c http.maxRequests=1 -c http.followRedirects=true clone \
	http://git.denx.de/u-boot-efi.git

I applied the patch to https://github.com/git/git origin/HEAD.

But unfortunately it does not solve the issue:

$ git --version
git version 2.21.0.197.g3845f293e6
$ git clone http://git.denx.de/u-boot-efi.git
Cloning into 'u-boot-efi'...
warning: alternate disabled by http.followRedirects:

It looks like you need to enable http.followRedirects
(see the command-line I used above)

In Wireshark I see a lot of '404 Not found' codes.
