Subject: [PATCH 2/4] remote: print an error if refspec cannot be removed
Message-ID: <a8dfe403d0683aec4265bf920921e45d5b59cec3.1726067917.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <pull.1789.git.1726067917.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>

If the existing fetch refspecs cannot be removed when replacing the set
of branches to fetch with "git remote set-branches" the command silently
fails. Add an error message to tell the user what when wrong.
