You're mixing up the two proposals.  This one is to teach

  git fetch repo foo

to update refs/remotes/repo/foo with the new value (maybe we should
also have it update in the foo:bar case, but I haven't thought that
through).

The other one is to forbid 'git pull repo foo:bar' and would not
change git-fetch at all.
