[PATCH v2] clone: respect configured fetch respecs during initial fetch

From
SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de>
Date

Conceptually 'git clone' should behave as if the following commands were run:

  git init
  git config ... # set default configuration and origin remote
  git fetch
  git checkout   # unless '--bare' is given

However, that initial 'git fetch' behaves differently from any subsequent fetches, because it takes only the default fetch refspec into account and ignores all other fetch refspecs that might have been explicitly specified on the command line (e.g. 'git -c remote.origin.fetch=<refspec> clone' or 'git clone -c ...').

Check whether there are any fetch refspecs configured for the origin remote and take all of them into account during the initial fetch as well.

Changes since previous (RFC) version:
 - new commit message
 - additional configured fetch refspecs are taken into account with
   '--single-branch' as well
