I like it too. I would like to add some more descripton, because I
think for newbies the .. and ... can be overlooked. Something like:

$ git fetch spearce
...
URL: git://repo.or.cz/git/spearce.git
 * (new)              spearce/gitk: new branch 'gitk'
 * 1aa3d01..e7187e4   spearce/maint: fast forward to branch 'maint'
 * de61e42..7840ce6   spearce/master: fast forward to branch 'master'
 * 895be02..2fe5433   spearce/next: fast forward to branch 'next'
 + 89fa332...1e4c517  spearce/pu: forcing update to non-fast forward branch 'pu'
 * (new)              spearce/todo: new branch spearce/todo

I would also put 'URL:' instead '==>'.
