DESCRIPTION
-----------
+THIS COMMAND IS DEPRECATED.
...

If a deprecated command has a replacement, the deprecation notice
should point the user to that.

Actually these fetch backend shouldn't even be needed by the end
users.  "git fetch" simply does not drive them these days.

You forget that this backend is a plumbing component, which might well be 
used by other porcelains. IIRC cogito uses it, optionally.
