Some confusing tutorials suggested that it would be a good idea to fetch
into the current branch with something like this:
git fetch origin master:master
(or even worse: the same command line with "pull" instead of "fetch").
While it might make sense to store what you want to pull, it typically
is plain wrong when the current branch is "master".
As noticed by Junio, this behavior should be triggered by _not_ passing
the --update-head-ok option, but somewhere along the lines we lost that
behavior.
NOTE: this patch does not completely resurrect the original behavior
without --update-head-ok: the check for the current branch is now _only_
performed in non-bare repositories.

On Sun, 12 Oct 2008, Daniel Barkalow and Shawn Pearce sent some
good suggestions to fix the first version of the patch.
This is the updated version. In particular, the test is only
performed without the option "--update-head-ok", the function
branch_get(NULL) is called to get the current branch, a test was
added to verify that --update-head-ok works as expected, and the
commit message was modified in the hope that it confuses less now.
Strangely, some more tests refused to pass this time, because they
did not use --update-head-ok; this was fixed, too.
