139	git -> monotone conversion fails at 'git fetch'	smartcat99s	lele	"When converting a git repo to monotone, it fails as seen below.

Commenting out the 'git fetch' on line 53 of vcpx/repository/git/source.py makes the conversion work with no side effects. (although origin has to be the head of the repository, as the master ref on the source repo is moved for each revision)
