Before this patch, makepkg would only check if $dir exists as an indication that a local clone exists. And if $dir does exist, makepkg will run git fetch inside it unconditionally. After applying this patch, makepkg will check if the existent $dir is empty. And if it is, it will be used to store a local clone.
