"fetch_local -d src dst" does not respect the dst directory name if both have different names. So

fetch_local -d /path/to/some/src /path/to/dst
copies to /path/to/src.

In fact this way it's never used in the current cogito so it's not really affected but it's needed in the case where the heads and tags are in directories.
