[PATCH] git-local-pull updates

This is to be applied on top of the previous patch to add
git-local-pull command.  In addition to the '-l' (attempt
hardlink before anything else) and the '-s' (then attempt
symlink) flags, it adds '-n' (do not fall back to file copy)
flag.  Also it updates the comments.
