Thank you for filling out a Git bug report!
Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)

Clone a repository and run this command:

git fetch origin main:main

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)

Nothing extraordinary happens. The branch is up to date.

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)

fatal: refusing to fetch into branch 'refs/heads/main' checked out at ''
fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly
remote:
remote: ========================================================================
remote:
remote: rpc error: code = Canceled desc = running upload-pack: user
canceled the request
remote:
remote: ========================================================================
remote:

Anything else you want to add:

If I checkout to another branch and run the same `git fetch` command on
this branch, the same error happens.

Further, if change HEAD but keep the same branch name, like this:

git checkout HEAD^
git checkout -B main

... then `git fetch origin main:main` fails as well.
