No, I don't think so.  There might be cases where you want to fetch
and then check out the changed submodules some day.

What might be nice is for cmd_fetch to clear the list before it
returns.  That way, if this functionality ever gets lib-ified then
there will be that reminder about how to reset the state.  And
valgrind can be a little quieter. :)
