Github and other sites redirect their downloads to a cdn. So the download http://foo.org/myrepo.db may redirect to something like https://cdn.foo.org/83749327439. This then causes pacman to try and download the sig as https://cdn.foo.org/83749327439.sig which is incorrect. In this case pacman should append .sig to the original url. However urls like https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/0ad/download/ Redirect to the mirror, so .sig has to appended after the redirects and not before. So we decide if we should append .sig on the original or effective url based on if the effective url has .db or .pkg in it.
