This makes sense if we want to convert the boolean argument to a flags argument. However the only callers that do not set `all` when calling this function are in git clone where we don't want to emit the warning. It is probably not worth a re-roll but I wonder if we really need to do this conversion or if we should just hard code guess_remote_head() to be quiet when it calls repo_default_branch_name()
