My impression is that using GIT_TRACE_* is the more mainstream trend, and it may be beneficial to work any new debugging aid like this one to fit within that mechanism. I am not saying new GIT_*_DEBUG is wrong. I just wanted to make sure you have considered doing this as a new trace in GIT_TRACE_* family and rejected that apporach with a very good reason, in which case that rationale deserves to be in the log message.
