Previously, the refspec "<src>:" would be expanded to "<src>:refs/heads/". Instead, treat an empty <dst> just like refspecs without a colon.

This fixes it.
Note that "git fetch origin :" is short for "git fetch origin HEAD", which stores the remote HEAD in FETCH_HEAD. You probably want "git fetch origin", without an explicit refspec, which defaults to "git fetch origin 'refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'", i.e. store remote branches in the namespace for tracking branches.
