I remember seeing it and wondering what workflow would need it.
Also at the same time I wondered if it was indeed needed for a
workflow why that workflow can get away with adding only that
option to git-fetch without either adding more things to it or
have a custom porcelain that drives the underlying
git-fetch-pack directly.

In the end I dropped it on the floor because what I wondered
about was not clear from the proposed commit log message.
