When fetching tags, Git only writes tags that do not already exist in
the client repository. This necessitates an iteration over all the refs,
but fetch performs this iteration even if no tags are fetched.
This issue is more severe in a partial clone because the iteration over
refs also checks that the targets of those refs are present,
necessitating a lazy fetch if the target is missing.
Therefore, iterate over the refs only when necessary. The user can avoid
this iteration by refraining from fetching tags, for example, by passing
--no-tags as an argument. A subsequent patch will also teach Git to use
"git fetch" to lazy-fetch missing objects in a partial clone, thus also
making use of this change.
