git-fetch: allow updating the current branch in a bare repository.
Sometimes, people have only fetch access into a bare repository that is used as a back-up location (or a distribution point) but does not have a push access for networking reasons, e.g. one end being behind a firewall, and updating the "current branch" in such a case is perfectly fine. This allows such a fetch without --update-head-ok, which is a flag that should never be used by end users otherwise. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
