The repository name is not sufficient, as the repository settings can
change over time. Either we need to log those changes as well or we can
use a full URL for the package in the log file.

Each repository can have more than one url. And I am not sure if commit
knows which url was used at the end.

And it doesn't really matter for mirrors.

It would be *very* helpful for us if we log the origin of a package
(URL), especially the "last" URL which the client ends up using when
following a series of HTTP redirects.

That said, a package checksum might be needed to fully reconstruct the
origin of a package.
