Actually, I think it's only that it doesn't merge anything if the first 
refspec doesn't match the first fetched ref from the server. I'm running 
tests on a patch that should fix it, but I'm not sure how to write a test 
for this particular case; I think the fetch tests try to test this, but 
pass by chance.
