We are not much happy with global variable fetch_if_missing. So, in commit
6462d5eb9a ("fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0", 2019-11-08) Jonathan Tan
jonathantanmy@xxxxxxxxxx [jonathantanmy@xxxxxxxxxx] attempted to remove the
need for fetch_if_missing=0 from the fetching mechanism. After that,
fetch_if_missing is removed from clone and promisor-remote too.
I imitated the same logic to remove fetch_if_missing from fetch-pack &
index-pack.
I'm looking forward to remove fetch_if_missing from other places too, but I
not sure about how to handle it.
In fsck, fetch_if_missing is set to 0 in the beginning of cmd_fsck().
In rev-list, fetch_if_missing is set to 0 in parse_missing_action_value(),
and in cmd_rev_list() while parsing the command-line parameters.(almost
similar case in pack-objects)
fixes #251

fetch-pack: remove fetch_if_missing=0
index-pack: remove fetch_if_missing=0
