Why?  The only difference is that it'll show you some "needs-update".
No other backend ever does that, and nobody ever cmplained about them.

Of course, there (c|sh)ould be a command (let's call it vc-pull-dry-run)
that you can run from vc-dir to see what needs to be merged from
upstream, but the main vc-dir command should be as quick as possible, to
show you the current state of the tree, i.e. which files are
locally modified.
