git fetch: Take '-n' to mean '--no-tags'
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Prior to commit 8320199 (Rewrite builtin-fetch option parsing to use
parse_options().), we understood '-n' as a short option to mean "don't
fetch tags from the remote". This patch reinstates behaviour similar,
but not identical to the pre commit 8320199 times.

Back then, -n always overrode --tags, so if both --tags and -n was
given on command-line, no tags were fetched regardless of argument
ordering. Now we use a "last entry wins" strategy, so '-n --tags'
means "fetch tags".

Since it's patently absurd to say both --tags and --no-tags, this
shouldn't matter in practice.
