The default was changed in commit a4503a15af.  Seems that today --thin 
is on by default again.  I don't think we should care that much, 
especially as --thin would logically have to be the default when pushing 
to a bundle.  Obviously leaving it off for push and on for fetch is 
creating needless confusion.
