I don't believe currently two fetch operations will work if they are racing each other? Needs some testing/analysis.

Research direction

Locate the fetch entry point and the code that reads or writes the cache directory. Run or add a concurrent-fetch test for a single cache directory, then determine whether both operations complete safely and capture the expected behavior in regression coverage.
