Fix variable scope issue in get_authenticated_git_url method

- Move provider and repo_name variable initialization outside try block
- Initialize with default values before attempting repository verification
- Ensures variables are always available regardless of exception path
- Add comprehensive unit tests to verify the fix works correctly
