It's a relict from previous iterations. I've fixed the preceding patch
to talk about `--porcelain` instead.

We don't have `--output-format` now though, but only the `--porcelain`
switch. The only way to configure "full"/"compact" output formats is via
the "fetch.output" config variable right now.

We pass `PARSE_OPT_NOARG|PARSE_OPT_NONEG`, so this isn't really much of
a concern. But yeah, it wouldn't allow `--no-porcelain`, and supporting
it is trivial enough to do. I'll change this to a `OPT_BOOL()`.
