The remote server might not want to tell why it doesn't like us for
security reasons, but let's make the client report such error in a bit
less confusing way. The remote failure remains a mystery, but the local
message might be a bit less so.

When checking which tags to fetch, the old code used to call
git-show-ref --verify for each remote tag. Since reading even
packed refs is not a cheap operation when there are a lot of
local refs, the code became quite slow.
This fixes it by teaching git-show-ref to filter out existing
refs using a new mode of operation of git-show-ref.

When update_local_ref() refuses to update a branch head due to
fast-forward check, it was not propagated properly in the call

Earlier, commit walkers downloaded loose refs from refs/ hierarchy
of the remote side to find where to start walking; this would
not work for a repository whose refs are packed and then pruned.
With the previous change, we have ls-remote output from the
remote in-core; we can use the value from there without
requiring loose refs anymore.

This makes both git-fetch and git-push (fetch-pack and receive-pack)
safe against a possible race with aparallel git-repack -a -d that could
prune the new pack while it is not yet referenced, and remove the .keep
file after refs have been updated.

The regexp on the right hand side of expr : operator somehow was
broken.
expr 'z+pu:refs/tags/ko-pu' : 'z\+\(.*\)'
does not strip '+'; write 'z+\(.*\)' instead.
We probably should switch to shell based substring post 1.3.0;
that's not bashism but just POSIX anyway.

Unless --no-tags flag was given, git-fetch tried to always
follow remote tags that point at the commits we picked up.
It is not very useful to pick up tags from remote unless storing
the fetched branch head in a local tracking branch. This is
especially true if the fetch is done to merge the remote branch
into our current branch as one-shot basis (i.e. "please pull"),
and is even harmful if the remote repository has many irrelevant
tags.
This proposed update disables the automated tag following unless
we are storing the a fetched branch head in a local tracking
branch.

Without this, there is no way to specify a remote executable when
invoking git-pull/git-fetch as there is for git-clone.
[jc: I have a mild suspicion that this is a broken environment (aka
sysadmin disservice). It may be legal to configure your sshd to
spawn named program without involving shell at all, and if your
sysadmin does so and you have your git programs under your home
directory, you would need something like this, but then I suspect
you would need such workaround everywhere, not just git. But we
have these options we can use to work around the issue, so there
is no strong reason not to reject this patch, either. ]

I added things to ls-remote so that Cogito can auto-follow tags
easily and correctly a while ago, but git-fetch did not use the
facility. Recently added git-describe command relies on
repository keeping up-to-date set of tags, which made it much
more attractive to automatically follow tags, so we do that as
well.
