As you cannot say "git pull refspecs...", the above might be more clear if you spelled it like this instead:

	if (repo) {
		argv_array_push(&args, repo);
		argv_array_pushv(&args, refspecs);
	} else if (*refspecs) {
        	die("BUG: refspec without repo?");
	}

No frills yet, which is a good way to start with and show the overall structure.
