Indeed. There was already a bug fixed that fetch was including passwords
in the message, but the URL of a network repo which is not publicly
accessible might be considered sensitive information.

Perhaps. Regular pull makes no record of where the changesets were
obtained from, so I don't see any compelling reason why fetch should either.

I don't follow this suggestion. Author of which revision? It is common
(in my experience at least) to fetch dozens of revisions from various
people, and this information is of little or no interest.
