I'm struggling to make sense of the semantics here.

$ got clone -b stable/13 ssh://anongit@git.freebsd.org/src.git
...
$ cd src.git
$ got ref -l | fgrep -v /tags/
HEAD: refs/heads/stable/13
refs/heads/stable/13: acaed6b1e2859cb6726e35e8c937b192c16a95c8
refs/remotes/origin/stable/13: acaed6b1e2859cb6726e35e8c937b192c16a95c8
$ got fetch
...
$ got ref -l | fgrep -v /tags/
HEAD: refs/heads/stable/13
refs/heads/main: 825fbd087e6150eaf601612a5e7468ddc808e004
refs/heads/stable/13: acaed6b1e2859cb6726e35e8c937b192c16a95c8
refs/remotes/origin/HEAD: refs/remotes/origin/main
refs/remotes/origin/main: 825fbd087e6150eaf601612a5e7468ddc808e004
refs/remotes/origin/stable/13: acaed6b1e2859cb6726e35e8c937b192c16a95c8

Presumably, if I limit "clone" to a particular branch, that's all
I'm interested in, and I don't expect the next "fetch" to add the
remote HEAD branch.
