Ok, I will make a clear note about the default (without --only) 
behavior
having weird behavior for historical reasons. Are you really OK with
--only=both? It sounds a bit odd (mathematically speaking it is 
correct
as fetch and push are both partitions that form the whole set if you
ignore the historical behavior).

How about :

s/--only/--direction/

or some suitable abbreviation (--dirn ?)

In the next version of the patch I went for three separate options,
--fetch, --push and --both:

(Juno, Jeff: ping?)

The option --direction=<fetch|push|both> is a bit longer and --dirn can
be mistaken for "directory N".
