Yes, except that I didn't plan to support the "tag foo" format. (My aim
with this is just to allow "git fetch" to take large numbers of
refspecs, because when we lazy fetch, the number of objects we fetch
might be large.)

Yes, and I only implemented the reading in fetch_one() because
fetch_multiple() does not read additional refspecs from the command-line
(it does not take "argv"). Looking at the code, this seems to be on
purpose - there is the error message "fetch --all does not make sense
with refspecs", and when --multiple is set, all args are assumed to be
remotes.
