Originally, if remote.<name>.tagopt was set, the --tags and option would
have no effect when given to git fetch. So if
tagopt="--no-tags"
git fetch --tags
would not actually fetch tags.
This patch changes this behavior to only follow what is written in the
config if there is no option passed by the command line.

And here it is. Sorry about the lateness. I also fixed a mistake I made in the
documentation (linked to the wrong secton).
I'd still like comments on both the code and the change in behavior behind it.
