why no 'fetch' for multiple repos? [message #875844]

Seems odd to me that egit should support 'pull' for multiple repos, but not 'fetch', given that 'pull' is fetch + merge. Am I missing something? If it can pull multiple repos then by definition it can fetch multiple repos just by skipping the merge step. Or am I missing something?

You don't miss anything except somebody proposing a patch Wink

Consider it proposed. I often prefer to fetch so I can look at the changes before merging or rebasing them.
