When source git repository has extension ".git" like in "MyRepo.git"
"git fetch" will drop ".git" extension and refer to it as "MyRepo".
Example:
sh$ git fetch -v ../MyRepo.git master
>From ../MyRepo
* branch master -> FETCH_HEAD
sh$ cat .git/FETCH_HEAD
6eb10bd105f2ef7f64c595100c0a850c5b3cfeb9 branch 'master' of ../MyRepo
Please, note that "git fetch" writes "../MyRepo" instead of "../MyRepo.git"
My workflow makes it convenient to have two distinct repositories
(1) "MyRepo" => where I work daily (WIP)
(2) "MyRepo.git" => --bare repository accessible to others. "MyRepo"
pushes ready changes to "MyRepo.git"
Dropping ".git" extension causes confusion between these two quite
similarly named repositories.
This problem can be easily solved by the patch below that removes the
code that strips off ".git" extension.
