Remove references to git-fetch-pack from "git clone" documentation.
"git clone" no longer calls "git-fetch-pack", so the documentation is a bit stale. Instead, state that the -u option is to be used when accessing a repository over ssh. Signed-off-by: Steve Haslam <shaslam@lastminute.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
