According to the return, it states:

"remote_url_changed": true

This means that the URL for the remote is different as compared between the
`repo` argument for the `git` module, and the value specified in
`.git/config` within that repo.

You can compare what is in `.git/config` via the command ansible uses: `git
ls-remote --get-url origin` from within `/opt/repofolder`

Past that, you would likely need additional debugging, following the code
of the git module to determine why it's not the same value.
