[issue1169] "hg fetch" produces incorrect error message when not on tip

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr>:

"hg fetch" produces the following error message when trying to invoke it on a
non-tip revision:

abort: working dir not at tip (use "hg update" to check out tip)

This message is wrong in the case of named branches. To properly update to tip,
we need "hg update tip" rather than simply "hg update", which will simply update
to the topmost revision in the current branch.
