This was actually reverted in 756373da by Junio. We no longer
support merging the right hand side of a fetchspec in a branch's
branch.$name.merge configuration setting as we interpret these
names as being only those published by the remote we are going to
fetch from.
The older shell based implementation of git-fetch did not report an
error when branch.$name.merge was referencing a branch that does
not exist on the remote and we are running `git fetch` for the
current branch. The new builtin-fetch does notice this failure
and aborts the fetch, thus breaking the tests.
Junio and I kicked it around on #git earlier today and decided that
the best approach here is to error out and tell the user that their
configuration is wrong, as this is likely more user friendly than
silently ignoring the user's request. Since the new builtin-fetch
is already issuing the error there is no code change required, we
just need to remove the bad configuration from our test.

If we are fetching something and were configured to do a forced
fetch and have no local ref to store the fetched object into we
cannot mark the local ref as having a forced update. Instead we
should just silently discard the + request.

When we are talking about a remote URI of "." we are really talking
about *this* repository that we are fetching into or pushing out of.
There are no matching tracking branches for this repository; we
do not attempt to map a ref back to ourselves as this would either
create an infinite cycle (for example "fetch = +refs/*:refs/mine/*")
or it causes problems when we attempt to push back to ourselves.
So we really cannot setup a remote like this:
[remote "."]
url = .
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
In the case of `git push . B:T` to fast-forward branch T to B's
current commit git-send-pack will update branch T to B, assuming that
T is the remote tracking branch for B. This update is performed
immediately before git-send-pack asks git-receive-pack to perform
the same update, and git-receive-pack then fails because T is not
where git-send-pack told it to expect T to be at.
In the case of `git fetch .` we really should do the same thing as
`git fetch $otherrepo`, that is load .git/FETCH_HEAD with the commit
of HEAD, so that `git pull .` will report "Already up-to-date".
We have always behaved like this before on this insane request and
we should at least continue to behave the same way. With the above
(bad) remote configuration we were instead getting fetch errors
about funny refs, e.g. "refs/stash".

If we are running fetch in a repository that has a detached HEAD

When using the walker API within builtin-fetch we don't allow
it to update refs locally; instead that action is reserved for
builtin-fetch's own main loop once the objects have actually
been downloaded.
Passing NULL here will bypass the unnecessary malloc/free of a
string buffer within the walker API. That buffer is never used
because the prior argument (the refs to update) is also NULL.

Junio and I both noticed that the new builtin-fetch was segfaulting
immediately on http/https/ftp style URLs (those that went through
libcurl and the commit walker). Although the builtin-fetch changes
in this area were really just minor refactorings there was one major
change made: we invoked http_init(), http_cleanup() then http_init()
again in the same process.
When we call curl_easy_cleanup() on each active_request_slot we
are telling libcurl we did not want that buffer to be used again.
Unfortunately we did not also deallocate the active_request_slot
itself nor did we NULL out active_queue_head. This lead us to
attempt to reuse these cleaned up libcurl handles when we later tried
to invoke http_init() a second time to reactivate the curl library.
The next file get operation then immediately segfaulted on most
versions of libcurl.
Properly freeing our own buffers and clearing the list causes us to
reinitialize the curl buffers again if/when we need to use libcurl
from within this same process.

fetch_pack() can call remove_duplicates() on its input array and
this will possibly overwrite an earlier entry with a later one if
there are any duplicates in the input array. In such a case the
caller here might then attempt to free an item multiple times as
it goes through its cleanup.
I also forgot to free the heads array we pass down into fetch_pack()
when I introduced the allocation of it in this function during my
builtin-fetch cleanup series. Better free it while we are here
working on related memory management fixes.

A long time ago Junio added this line to always ensure that the
output array created by remove_duplicates() had a NULL as its
terminating node. Today none of the downstream consumers of this
array care about a NULL terminator; they only pay attention to the
size of the array (as indicated by nr_heads). In (nearly?) all
cases passing a NULL element will cause SIGSEGV failures. So this
NULL terminal is not actually necessary.
Unfortunately we cannot continue to NULL terminate the array at
this point as the array may only have been allocated large enough
to match the input of nr_heads. If there are no duplicates than
we would be trying to store NULL into heads[nr_heads] and that may
be outside of the array.
My recent series to cleanup builtin-fetch changed the allocation of
the heads array from 256 entries to exactly nr_heads thus ensuring
we were always overstepping the array and causing memory corruption.

If we are using a native transport and the transport chose to
save the packfile it may have created a .keep file to protect
the packfile from a concurrently running git-repack process.
In such a case the git-fetch process should make sure it will
unlink the .keep file even if it fails to update any refs as
otherwise the newly downloaded packfile's diskspace will never
be reclaimed if the objects are not actually referenced.

If we are using a native packfile to perform a git-fetch invocation
and the received packfile contained more than the configured limits
of fetch.unpackLimit/transfer.unpackLimit then index-pack will output
a single line saying "keep\t$sha1\n" to stdout. This line needs to
be captured and retained so we can delete the corresponding .keep
file ("$GIT_DIR/objects/pack/pack-$sha1.keep") once all refs have
been safely updated.
This trick has long been in use with git-fetch.sh and its lower level
helper git-fetch--tool as a way to allow index-pack to save the new
packfile before the refs have been updated and yet avoid a race with
any concurrently running git-repack process. It was unfortunately
lost when git-fetch.sh was converted to pure C and fetch--tool was
no longer being invoked.

There is a subtle (but important) linkage between receive-pack and
index-pack that allows index-pack to create a packfile but protect
it from being deleted by a concurrent `git repack -a -d` operation.
The linkage works by having index-pack mark the newly created pack
with a ".keep" file and then it passes the SHA-1 name of that new
packfile to receive-pack along its stdout channel.
The receive-pack process must unkeep the packfile by deleting the
.keep file, but can it can only do so after all elgible refs have
been updated in the receiving repository. This ensures that the
packfile is either kept or its objects are reachable, preventing
a concurrent repacker from deleting the packfile before it can
determine that its objects are actually needed by the repository.
The new builtin-fetch code needs to perform the same actions if
it choose to run index-pack rather than unpack-objects, so I am
moving this code out to its own function where both receive-pack
and fetch-pack are able to invoke it when necessary. The caller
is responsible for deleting the returned ".keep" and freeing the
path if the returned path is not NULL.

Commit walkers need to know the SHA-1 name of any objects they
have been asked to fetch while the native pack transport only
wants to know the names of the remote refs as the remote side
must do the name->SHA-1 translation.
Since we only have three fetch implementations and one of them
(bundle) doesn't even need the name information we can reduce
the code required to perform a fetch by having just one function
and passing of the filtered list of refs to be fetched. Each
transport can then obtain the information it needs from that ref
array to construct its own internal operation state.

Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for review and fixes, and Julian
Phillips for the original C translation.
This changes a few small bits of behavior:
branch.<name>.merge is parsed as if it were the lhs of a fetch
refspec, and does not have to exactly match the actual lhs of a
refspec, so long as it is a valid abbreviation for the same ref.
branch.<name>.merge is no longer ignored if the remote is configured
with a branches/* file. Neither behavior is useful, because there can
only be one ref that gets fetched, but this is more consistant.
Also, fetch prints different information to standard out.
