Merge branch 'rc/fetch-refetch'
"git fetch --refetch" learned to fetch everything without telling
the other side what we already have, which is useful when you
cannot trust what you have in the local object store.
* rc/fetch-refetch:
docs: mention --refetch fetch option
fetch: after refetch, encourage auto gc repacking
t5615-partial-clone: add test for fetch --refetch
fetch: add --refetch option
builtin/fetch-pack: add --refetch option
fetch-pack: add refetch
fetch-negotiator: add specific noop initializer
