I guess I'm a little bit confused here as I'm not quite sure what I'm
trying to accomplish...

Here's what I ran:
% GIT_DIR=. git fetch \
--update-head-ok git://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git master:master

Isn't git supposed to fetch master:origin as my remotes/origin file
contains (I actually tried both and refs/heads/origin and refs/heads/master
have the same value):

URL: git://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
Pull: master:origin
Pull: todo:todo
Pull: html:html
Pull: maint:maint
Pull: man:man
Pull: pu:pu

So it knows about the repository and the ref spec so all I need would be
the --update-head-ok flag then, no?
