Sorry for not replying to this earlier, but Junio previously suggested
the following:

"Perhaps invent a totally bogus domain name, map that to
localhost ::1, run a test server locally, and try to clone from that
bogus domain?"

(See: https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqfslrycvp.fsf@gitster.g/)

I think "a totally bogus domain name" refers to something other than
"example.com".

Also "example.com" does seem to resolve to an IP address and even has
an HTTP(S) server on it, while I think the purpose of the test would
be to check that there is not even a valid DNS resolution when the new
option is not used.
