Summary and Info:

Please make vcs update errors, such as git fetch, fatal. Currently it produces a warning, which is trivial to miss amongst the hundreds of lines of output produced during package building.

I don't have a strong optinion of the new behaviour should be the default or behind some makepkg --fatal-vcs-updates like flag.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create PKGBUILD which has a git repo in its sources array
2. Build the package
3. Add extra changes to the upstream git repo
4. Make the git repo inaccessible (your connection suddenly drops, rename the upstream repo, etc)
5. Rebuild the package - try and find the WARNING show up, while the build churns
