+-a, \--append::
+       Append ref names and object names of fetched refs to the
+       existing contents of $GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD.  Without this
+       option old data in $GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD will be overwritten.
+
+-u, \--update-head-ok::
+       By default 'git-fetch' refuses to update the head which
+       corresponds to the current branch.  This flag disables the
+       check.  Note that fetching into the current branch will not
+       update the index and working directory, so use it with care.
