Thanks for your explanations, they made a lot of sense. I see, I gave
examples of various ways of using "git fetch" but they may not reflect
real life usage patterns very well. I still feel that refspecs need more
explaining (for newbies, that is) so I may later bring another patch
hopefully with better examples and applicable to real workflows.
