spack.stage.Stage() not working for Git strategy #5462
Description
I have the following script...
#!/usr/bin/env spack-python
import spack
import spack.main
import spack.store
from spack.main import SpackCommand
from llnl.util.filesystem import working_dir
from spack.util.executable import which
import os
import mmap
import re
from shutil import rmtree as rmdashf
import sys
idir = '/Users/miller86/spack/spack/opt/foobar'
rmdashf(idir)
spack.store.layout = spack.directory_layout.YamlDirectoryLayout(idir)
spack.store.db = spack.database.Database(idir)
pkgSpec = 'amrex'
specs = spack.cmd.parse_specs(pkgSpec, concretize=True)
assert(len(specs)==1)
pkg = spack.repo.get(specs[0])
with spack.stage.Stage(pkg.url) as stage:
stage.fetch()
print os.getcwd()
print os.listdir(os.getcwd())
If I use amrex (a Git fetch strategy package), I get this output...
[scratlantis:~/spack/spack] miller86% ./fitck_download.py

The checksum will likely be bad. If it is, you can use
'spack clean <package>' to remove the bad archive, then
fix your internet gateway issue and install again.

['amrex.git']
In particular, it does not actually stage the package but instead appears to attempt to fetch amrex vi its Get repo URL. The downloaded file is indeed an HTML file with...
<html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>
</body>
</html>
However, if I do zlib, a URL fetch strategy, it works as expected.
I think this is a bug.
