Yes.  I understand that that is how git typically works in a non-bare
repository.

And in a bare repository:

    git init --bare foo.git
    cd              foo.git
    git remote add bar ../bar.git
    git fetch      bar
        --> adds bar/master etc.

For some reason, 'git clone --bare' does not treat the cloned
repository the same way - it just copies it under refs/heads/
instead of refs/remotes/, without even adding it as a remote.
