Mark http-fetch without -a as deprecated
As the use of http-fetch without -a can create an object store that is invalid to the point where it cannot even be fsck'd, mark it as deprecated. A future release should change the default and then remove the option entirely. Signed-off-by: Ben Walton <bwalton@artsci.utoronto.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
