From: "Daniel D. Beck" <daniel@ddbeck.com>

In c39952b92 (fetch: choose a sensible default with --jobs=0 again, 2023-02-20), the `--jobs=0` behavior was (re)introduced, but it went undocumented. Since this is the same behavior as `git -c fetch.parallel=0 fetch`, which is documented, this change creates symmetry between the two documentation sections.

 `--jobs=<n>`::
 	Parallelize all forms of fetching up to _<n>_ jobs at a time.
 +
+A value of 0 will use some reasonable default.
++
 If the `--multiple` option was specified, the different remotes will be fetched
 in parallel. If multiple submodules are fetched, they will be fetched in
 parallel. To control them independently, use the config settings
