It is true that it was a long-term goal to deprecate many parts of the
"git remote" script that started as a hack to scratch itches "git fetch"
in the older days did not directly scratch for people, e.g. fetching from
multiple remotes in one go.

I do not think 1.7.X series to 1.8 is a big enough jump to remove
duplicated features, though.
