Installing extension from private Gitlab repository

Bug description

I am having troubles by adding extensions from a GitLab repo, which I am developing. The extension seems to be downloaded but it fails when unzipping the zip-file.

Steps to reproduce

quarto add https://gitlab.cc-asp.fraunhofer.de/quarto-extensions/mdz/-/archive/main/shorty-main.zip

Expected behavior

The installed extension.

Actual behavior

An error message is retrieved:

Quarto extensions may execute code when documents are rendered. If you do not 
trust the authors of the extension, we recommend that you do not install or 
use the extension.
